Honors Program: Special Events & Programming
One of the missions of the Honors Program is to expose its students to the many benefits of attending a university located in the city of Philadelphia. To that end, all Honors students participate in a cultural outing in the fall. These outings might include a trip to see the Philadelphia Symphony Orchestra, the Pennsylvania Ballet, or the Curtis Opera Theatre; a visit to a museum; an evening at a reading or spoken-word performance; or a stroll through a First Friday event to stop into Old City s many contemporary art galleries.
Similarly, the Honors Program wishes to foster leadership and volunteerism in its students and to align itself fully with Holy Family s Mission and Core Values. Therefore, in the spring, all students will be asked to participate in a day of service, during which they might clean a local park, volunteer at a food-distribution facility, or dedicate their time to an underserved school or community group.
