Honors Housing and Residential Activities

All entering freshmen admitted to UHP are encouraged to live in Honors Housing in Middlebrook Hall. Students realize a sense of community in Honors housing by living with students from all disciplines, diverse backgrounds, and interests. In Honors housing, students have the opportunity to live together, study together, and participate in co-curricular activities.

Honors housing is a place of connecting and community. It is a hub of social and intellectual events with talks by esteemed professors, authors, artists, and distinguished campus visitors.  Here you will find on-site tutors and community assistants who are part of the Honors program.  Informal study groups, an endless variety of spontaneous activities including Ultimate Frisbee, soccer and chess games, and engrossing conversations with Honors peers are part of daily life. The University Honors Program hosts Honors specific activities in Middlebrook, including workshops on volunteering and interning, mini-seminars with U of M faculty (and pizza), and a variety of social activities.

Honors students develop friendships and make connections that benefit them in of their present and future lives.  The best thing about Honors Housing is living with other Honors students!
