Honors Program

COMMUNITY SERVICE

For successful completion of the Honors Program, students are required to complete 40 hours of community service.

This can be done as part of the IDS Course although students may need to fulfill additional hours beyond what is completed during the IDS Course.

Students may choose community service based upon their career goals or interest areas, or as part of club participation while attending SJR State.

Documentation for community service hours needs to be turned in to the Arts & Sciences Office and can be forwarded to the office by the IDS 1100 Instructor, the Club Sponsor if appropriate, or by the student.
