Guidance & Support Boards
The perspectives of those who know us best supplement the leadership and guidance of Honors College staff. Our advisory and volunteer boards, along with our parents council, are essential and trusted voices for the College as we strive to maintain our reputation as the nation's premier honors program.
External Advisory Board (EAB)
The External Advisory Board is composed of Penn State alumni, friends of the Schreyer Honors College, parents of Scholars, and others committed to the College realizing its mission.
The board convenes twice a year at meetings held on the University Park campus.
Board members demonstrate leadership and commitment to the College through their advice and counsel of the Dean and staff, mentorship of current Scholars, by sponsoring internships and research projects, and through personal philanthropy.
