Honors Cords, Grad Reception, and the Senior Survey

Hey Seniors HEYYYYYYY
If you’re graduating, have we got the survey for you! When you complete it, you can pick up your gold honor cord to wear at graduation.  You can also pick up your 5 tickets for the UHP Graduating Seniors reception. I’m not saying we’re holding your cords and tickets hostage, but I’m also not not saying it.
Here’s what you need to know:
First, complete the senior survey. You can do this online starting today — make sure to follow the link at the very end to submit your name on a separate form!  We keep your responses and your name separate so that you can feel free to be honest, but we need to confirm that you’ve completed the survey.  That last step is key!
Next, come pick up your golden cord and graduating senior reception tickets at the Foggy Bottom office staring Monday, May 4th.  You can continue to pick up your materials any time during regular business hours (9AM-5PM) after that up until the Thursday before graduation. We’ll check to make sure you’ve already completed the Senior Survey.
Finally, attend the  UHP Graduating seniors reception.  We’ll be in the City View Room at 1957 E Street from 5-7pm on Saturday, May 16th, 2015. Please note the reception will feature a cash bar and you will be able to pick up one drink ticket per guest when you check in at the reception.
We look forward to seeing you and your guests at the reception!
 

Tell the UHP You're Graduating

graduLet the Honors Program know you intend to graduate this semester!
For those of you graduating this spring, we need your Graduation Form by Friday, January 31st.
The Graduation Form is an online form that should take you about 5 minutes to complete.
When you fill out this form, it lets us know to contact you about getting your gold graduation cords and tickets for our VIP reception during commencement weekend.  Don’t miss out!

Honors Contract Deadline Soon

Just want to point out here that we've been making "contract" posts several times a year for years now, and this is the FIRST time we thought of this epic Disney scene.
