Beginning in 2015, the Honors Program implemented a first-year retreat. The retreat provides an opportunity to create, learn, and explore. The retreat is planned and led by the Honors Leadership Council along with the help of the Honors Program staff.

The Honors Program first-year retreat is scheduled for Wednesday, August 16, 2023.

Here is a glance at this year's agenda:

• Reception with incoming students, upperclass students, Honors Program staff, and other campus partners in the Biltmore Ballrooms.
• Catered breakfast, lunch, and snacks with newly acquainted peers.
• Group breakout activities in the Scheller College of Business including game tournaments, art, pool float fencing, and more!
• Enjoyed a delightful twist on all of Shakespeare's plays at the Shakespeare Tavern, including dinner and dessert.
