Honors FLIGHT Program
The 网曝门 Honors FLIGHT Program is a nationally recognized, award-winning experiential curriculum that quantifies students' work outside of the classroom through a guided pathway. Students master seven competencies essential to social, personal, and professional growth:
- Research, Scholarship & Creative Work
- Global & Cultural Engagement
- CREED (Communities, Respect, Empathy, Equity & Diversity)
- Leadership
- Career Development
- Civic & Social Engagement
- Honors Pride
FLIGHT stands for Forging Leaders, Inspiring Growth, and Harnessing Talent. The program enacts a point system tied to events and activities on campus and within the broader local community. Points earned culminate in digital badges highlighting students' earned competencies that may be placed on resumes, LinkedIn profiles, professional portfolios, and other professional documents.听
Students who are active outside the classroom develop important practical and relational skills that are valuable to employers and advanced degree programs. Students who cultivate the skills highlighted in the FLIGHT Program present thorough credentials that graduate schools, exclusive internships, and competitive jobs around the world look for in a candidate.听
The FLIGHT Program is powered by Suitable, an app that allows students to track point totals and badge progress, learn about upcoming events, and check in at events using the built-in QR code reader. Suitable also produces a co-curricular transcript which allows students to showcase earned badges and competences to potential employers and postgraduate degree programs.
