Past Events

During the fall of 2015, Honors students took a night trip to the Corn Maze in Strasburg, PA.  They also did a night event at the Field of Screams for Halloween after carving pumpkins at Reighard Hall.  Each month during the academic year, the special events chair of the HCSA plans an event for the Honors students.  Events are not required of Honors students, but they are highly recommended activities.  November brought Laser Tag at the Laser Dome outside of Lancaster.  The biggest event of the year was the HCSA formal, held at the end of February. Other events typically include pottery, movie nights, Skyzone, Spooky Nook, Barnstormers games, and many more. Some events also open to all University students.
