1. Provide a bulleted list of co-curricular activities (school & community) you have been involved with over the past two years and include dates of involvement. Where appropriate, please indicate any leadership roles.

2. Carefully review the Honors College Philosophy Statement (see below). A mission of the Honors College involves extending our leadership training and service commitment to the larger campus community. In a paragraph of 200 words, discuss how you might best help us attain this goal by networking/collaborating with a campus or community group.

The Honors College at West Chester University provides an inviting environment for academically gifted and highly motivated students to interact and form a learning community of peers, faculty, administrators, and staff that will challenge and enrich the students’ college experience. Grounded in the liberal arts tradition, the Honors College seeks cross-disciplinary connections in order to develop students’ natural intellectual abilities and challenges students to employ those gifts on behalf of the larger community. For this reason, the Honors College considers "honors" more than a matter of strong grades. It means using the gift of knowledge to be an active and creative problem solver in both the campus community and in the world. Honors is about building character and fostering a commitment to life learning that can develop the leaders of the 21st century. - WCUPA Honors College Philosophy Statement
