Honors College Community Involvement Program

Participate in one of three exciting HCCIP labs:

All HCCIP sections are designated Writing Intensive and count toward the Minor in Leadership and Public Service.

The Honors College Community Involvement Program (HCCIP) introduces honors and non-honors students to public service and leadership. The program encourages our brightest and most energetic students to use their talents to improve the lives of those around them. While participating in various community service projects, students attend an honors seminar, read short essays, write journals, and work on research projects in which they investigate social problems and propose solutions. HCCIP explores the social challenges we all face, and promotes contribution to the community, problem solving, and leadership. By offering a variety of community service projects, spanning all ages and walks of life, we hope that all students will become involved and express themselves through service. Class requirements include short readings, quizzes, journal writing, and a final paper. Students sign up for RSD with Lab. Instructor for all sections-Dr. Anne-Marie Foley. Credit hours-3.

More you should know about HCCIP:

  • All HCCIP classes are offered through the Honors College, but you do not have to be in the Honors College to participate.
  • HCCIP is open to students with at least one semester of college credit.
  • All HCCIP classes can be used for "general elective" credit, and, if you are in the Honors College, you can take them for credit towards your honors certificate.

Class requirements:

A student enrolled in HCCIP attends a one-hour lecture on Mondays, and then, one day per week, attends a one-hour lab specific to the program he/she is in (Youth, Women's Issues, or Public Health), for a total of 2 hours per week in class. Also, all students must complete 45 hours of service by the end of the semester (about 3-5 hours/week).
