Harbor House

 

Welcome!

Greetings on behalf of the Harbor House, the ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ Honors Program’s new special interest house. We are a group of ten females passionate about making the most of our opportunities here in the honors program at ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ. We represent a safe and accepting place for starting conversations, asking tough questions, and brainstorming solutions. We know that a person cannot change the world alone, which is why we are also a place for hospitality, friendship, and growth. Moreover, we desire to keep each other accountable, whether it is reminding each other to prioritize our walks with God, stay focused on academics, or make time for fellowship and rest. Following Romans 12:1-3, we dedicate ourselves as living sacrifices while making the most of the gifts that God has given us. Knowing that our intellect comes from God and that receiving an education is a privilege, we strive to love Him and others while letting Him transform us into people of character. At the Harbor House, we believe that making a difference starts with conversation and companionship, and we hope you join us in this vision while sharing your zeal, stories, goals, gratitude, and ideas with us.
