FriendshipThe Honors Learning Community gives students the opportunity to develop lifelong friendships throughout their academic experience. Students accepted to the Honors LC will live together at Laurel Hall and will take part in a series of in-class and out-of-class activities designed to foster a sense of community. Becoming a part of the Honors LC allows students to remain in an academic setting both in and outside of the classroom. |  HLC Residential Assistant Matt Sheehan and friends celebrate making the Dean's List in Dr. Galloway's treehouse. |
| | OpportunityAll students in the Learning Community will take an honors section of US 1100. Honors sections of this course are smaller than regular sections and focus on engaging students in the University Common Experience. Honors US 1100 professors are dedicated to their students. In your time spent in US 1100, they will help you to plan your education at Texas State. This includes exploring possible topics for your honors thesis. |
Going BeyondLiving and learning together through the Honors Learning Community gives honors students the opportunity to meet the requirements of their US 1100 classes as a team. This includes attending many of the Common Experience events featuring film, music, poetry discussions and theater. Honors Learning Community students will also participate in the annual Honors Retreat, where distinguished guests and Texas State faculty guide students through workshops on creativity and leadership, in addition to a variety of recreational activities. |  HLC freshmen get to know each other through community building events. |
