TAKE YOUR PROFESSOR TO LUNCH

The “Take Your Professor to Lunch” Program is designed for you to get to know your professors better over lunch in the University Club (for faculty and staff) in the Mary Graydon Center Room 3. The University Club is generally open 11:30am - 1:30pm Monday - Friday.

 



All you need to do is to invite your professor, pick a date for your lunch, and stop by the University Honors Program in the University Honors Center in Hurst Hall 206 to pick up the necessary ticket for the two (or more) of you to eat.


How does it work?

Lunch for Honors students will be deducted from their university meal plan if they have one. If students do not have a meal plan, the University Honors Program will pick up the tab for the student in addition to the professor. While one-to-one luncheons are encouraged, groups of two or three Honors students may also invite a professor.

Who can participate?
Honors students can invite any professor to lunch. The professor does not need to be teaching an Honors course at the time. Students working on capstone projects, for example, might want to invite their capstone advisors to lunch. This is an excellent opportunity not only to get to know your professor, but to thank her/him as well.
