Honors Greece Trip

About the Project

Currently under the direction of associate professor Dr. Jamie Chapman, the Honors Program strives to cultivate a scholarly community in which high-achieving students can thrive, emerging as leaders within and beyond the campus community. The program's trip to Greece is a required academic experience, but currently lacks financial support for students to attend without the personal financial ability to do so.
