Scholars Council
The Scholars Council is a group of 30 students elected to represent the interest of all University Scholars. Members of the Scholars Council serve on the USP Advisory Committee, which determines policy for the program. Each year the Scholars Council sponsors a wide variety of social, educational and service activities. Among the activities organized by the Scholars Council annually are: a beginning-of-the-year ice cream social; a mid-year semiformal, and an end-of-the-year Picnic and Games.  For more information about the Scholars Council, visit the Council website or contact the Scholars Council Chair at scholars_council@hotmail.com.

"Upon entering the program I had the opportunity to join the Scholars Council. Becoming part of this program was vital for my growth and development. The Scholars Program taught me how to appreciate the basic intricacies of life. It opened my eyes to the outside world and helped me immerse myself in other cultures besides my own."
-Siddhi Gupta, '09, Biological Sciences
