The Honors theme is specifically for students who have been admitted into the UNH Honors Program. The Honors theme and Making the Grade are housed together in Hubbard Hall. Honors students give their theme an "A" for its pleasing combination of socializing opportunities, respect for diligent scholarship, and strong sense of community.

Hubbard hall in fall of 2008 will be the home of the living/learning floor for first year students called "Think Globally, Act Locally: The Individual in Community Context."  These students will live in Hubbard and take one four credit honors inquiry class together.  Being a part of this community is a great way to get started at UNH.

Here's what students are saying about the Honors Theme


“There always seems to be awesomely cool people living here. It's usually sufficiently quiet, it's near a dining hall, and it's just the right size for me. I've lived here since I was a freshman.

I'm going to be a senior next year, and I'm planning on living here still because I like it so much.”
– Amber Marshall

 

“I like that Hubbard is a quiet and peaceful place to live.  However, the best part is that it is quiet, but not a ghost town.  There's always something going on, be it a movie night or a giant Halo match.  Also, I like that it is separated from the majority of the campus so that we don't have to worry about t ra ffic or t ra in noises at night.  It is a nice, quiet place to live, with kind people.”
– Brennan Riley


 



Bush vs. Kerry Debate '04

“Would I recommend the Honors floor to an incoming first year student? It would depend on what they wanted. If they wanted to see just the party side of UNH, then I would not recommend the Honors Floor; however, if they wanted a mix of socializing and diligent scholarship along with a sense of community then I definitely would recommend it.”
- Brett Hunter

   

“'Would I recommend the Honors floor to an incoming first year student?' Yes, it not only for your freshman year, because it is important to make friends with people who value similar life decisions as much as you do. I'm not saying that you can't like to party, or that the floor is all nerds or whatever, we're not…it's just nice to know that I won't really have to worry about one of my roommates flunking out of school and leaving (I don't think I could take it if one of them left!)”
- Rachel Whitaker
