Welcome to the Honors House

The Honors House is home to a dynamic and diverse student community. Located in the heart of campus, it’s a cozy space to study, spend time together, share ideas or collect your thoughts. You can enjoy a meal or do your laundry. You can also participate in all kinds of fun and healthy activities, like yoga classes, that enrich the body and mind.

The Honors House features a kitchen, computer lab, conference room and other amenities. It’s open from 8 AM until 10:00 PM daily, and you’re welcome to use the facilities any time during these hours. You’re also welcome to bring guests, as long as they are accompanied by an Honors student.

 
 

Honors House Rules

The Honors House is shared by students, staff, faculty and the University community in general. While it is a comfortable home for all, it’s essential that we are considerate of others and use our good judgment to make it an enjoyable place for everyone. We ask that you treat the Honors House with respect and always leave it a little better than you found it.

Please take a moment to review the guidelines below for using and maintaining the Honors House.
