The Honors Staff

The Coordinator of the Honors Program works closely with the Assistant Director and Director to facilitate the office's day-to-day activities.  The Coordinator often serves as the first resource person students encounter upon entering the Honors suite.

The Assistant Director of the Honors Program works closely with students, faculty and administrators to ensure that the integrity of academic and co-curricular activities is maintained from their inception to their completion. As chairperson of the Honors Council and the Honors Curriculum Committee, the Assistant Director serves as a primary resource person for students and faculty who want to develop initiatives in curricular and co-curricular programming.

Other Honors Resources
The Program also draws upon its network of Honors alumni who provide a wealth of experience and connections through individual contact with our current students and through AlumNight career and graduate school forums.

As an active member of the National Collegiate Honors Council, Villanova also provides the opportunity for students to present their academic work at regional and national conferences.

The Director of the Honors Program serves as the academic advisor to Honors students and maintains faculty members' written evaluations of all students who have taken Honors courses. The overview provided by these evaluations, along with the knowledge that comes from working closely with students in the advisement process, provides additional details for developing strong recommendations for job or graduate school applications.

The Director of Honors also chairs the National Scholarships Committee and maintains a close relationship with the Office of Competitive Grants and Awards, which is responsible for supporting Villanova students' applications for national fellowships. As a result, participants in the Program enjoy ready access to resource files and workshops that aid students in applying for these scholarships as well as graduate and professional schools.
