College Discovery Day is for prospective high school seniors to engage with their academic area of interest.

College Discovery Days are special opportunities for high school students and their families to visit our campus and explore their academic area(s) of interest through an open house hosted by the College of their choice. This major-specific event provides a personalized experience for students interested in the Honors College.

If you are looking for a new or different hobby, consider needlepointing. Today’s needlepointing is not the same as it was during your grandmother’s time. In each class you can create a one-of-a-kind needlepointed piece by selecting your own thread colors. The stitch guide that accompanies this project allows you to even choose the stitches you want to use to complete the project. Class is for the beginner, intermediate, or advanced needlepointer.
