Student Leadership Organizations

Student Honors Advisory Board (SHAB)

The Student Honors Advisory Board supports and improves implementation of the educational and community goals of the University Honors Program. SHAB is comprised of a representative from each College.

To fulfill its mission, SHAB solicits community feedback and identifies issues of concern for the Honors Student body. SHAB keeps the Honors Program Team informed about student concerns and provides critical feedback when the Honors Program needs a student sounding board. Similarly, SHAB keeps the Honors Student population abreast of academic and administrative changes in the Honors Program.

Additionally, SHAB serves as a peer resource for current Honors Students and assists with outreach to and support of new and prospective Honors Students.

HUSC!

Honors Undergraduate Social Committee (HUSC) designs and implements fun social events for the entire Honors Student community.

Anyone is welcome to join and contribute their ideas to this low-commitment but super fun group.

In Fall 2023, HUSC meetings will take place each Tuesday at 5PM in MUB 302

HUSC welcomes your energy and creativity!  HUSC has sponsored Valentine cookie decorating, seed-planting/pot-painting around Earth Day, and BINGO nights with fantastic prizes. What else would you like to see from your Honors Social Committee? 

Contact any member of the Executive Board if you'd like to learn more about HUSC.

Engagement Meet-Ups (EMUs) for Incoming Students

EMUs are fun get-togethers designed for incoming UNH Honors Students to meet one another during the summer months, make a few friendly connections before the fall semester, and ask Honors- and University-related questions of experienced, upper-level Honors student mentors, our EMU Leaders. We will host three EMUs in Summer 2023.

Applications for EMU Leaders are due in late April.
The form to RSVPs to attend our EMUs should hit your email inbox in June.
