University Honors Program Supports Idaho Veterans

On Saturday, Feb. 4 the University Honors Program Club (UHP Club) volunteered some time to play bingo with the veterans residing at the Idaho State Veterans Home on Alvin Rickin Drive.  This is the second year that the UHP has been involved with bingo at the Veterans Home.  The event was well received and the veterans and 9 club members enjoyed the afternoon together.   A recognized student organization on campus, the UHP Club provides Honors student’s opportunities to engage in activities and initiatives to promote student growth.  The UHP Club’s purpose is to enhance educational and social opportunities; to organize related social and service activities; to develop leadership skills; to promote service in the community and surrounding areas in order to encourage excellence of heart as well as of mind.
