The Philosophy Club Meetings count as an Honor Co-Curricular Activity!
Honors co-curricular events are designed to enrich and enhance your academic experience. The MCC Honors Program believes that these activities will assist you in expanding your educational experience, improve retention, and engage you in the college community. The events should not be part of your course work (required or extra credit). You cannot duplicate an activity category in any one semester (e.g., cannot attend two academic lectures in one semester).
Our club meetings do count as a co-curricular activity.
