The Honors College Alumni Society (HCAS) mission is to promote the continued engagement and interests of alumni with the Honors College and build a strong network of engaged alumni, students, faculty, staff, and friends who support the school through various means, including event participation, volunteerism, and philanthropy.

All Honors College students and their families are invited to participate in a meet and greet with our Honors College network of support. Enjoy light refreshments while talking with students, staff, and faculty. Space will be on a first come, first served basis.
