Smittcamp Family Honors College
2004-2005 California State University, Fresno General Catalog 17
sity Lecture Series guests, and various
outside authorities address the topic in a
weekly public gathering. Honors
students then engage with the week’s
expert in a dialogue that grows from the
expert’s presentation. The honors
director or other faculty is the modera-tor;
our campus community at large is
invited as audience.
These colloquia also provide opportuni-ties
for faculty to present their own
research. The campus can learn about a
colleague’s research while students
experience models for presenting their
own research. Finally, Honors students
themselves will use the colloquia as a
vehicle for publicly presenting their own
senior honors projects.
Scholarships
Assisted by Student Affairs and Financial
Aid, President Welty pairs the honors
academic opportunity with financial
opportunity.
All students in each Smittcamp Family
Honors College class receive a President’s
Honors Scholarship Grant. This consists
of the equivalent of full tuition and fees,
an annual $200 book allowance, and free
housing on campus for all four years of a
student’s honors study.
The program is designed to attract more
freshmen students to California State
University, Fresno. The intellectual level
of the campus is enhanced by Honors
College offerings and activities; the
