Students talking outside in the Honors Village Courtyard

Invest in Mentorship. Step into Leadership. Shape your Future.

Through meaningful guidance and hands-on leadership experiences, you gain the confidence, skills, and network to make a lasting impact.
Beccome the leader you were meant to be and grow with others along the way.

Our approach to Mentorship & Leadership 

Mentorship and leadership are central to the undergraduate experience at the W.A. Franke Honors College. Through close faculty mentorship, personalized advising, and peer leadership opportunities, students are guided to think critically, take initiative, and connect their academic pursuits to real-world impact. These relationships foster a supportive environment where students are encouraged to ask bold questions, explore interdisciplinary ideas, and grow through challenge and reflection. By emphasizing leadership development alongside academic excellence, the Franke Honors College prepares students to serve, collaborate, and lead with integrity—on campus, in their communities, and far beyond the university.
