Constitution

Committees

All students in the Chancellor’s Program are eligible to join an committee. The goal of the committees is to further enhance the CHP experience for all students by providing community building events, service opportunities, and publicizing the achievements and creativity of our remarkable students. There are currently two  committees that serve under the leadership of the CHP Honors Council: the Community Service Committee and the Events Committee.

Community Service Committee. The Community Service Committee is responsible for organizing and executing community service opportunities for CHP students. Past projects have included providing service at a community garden that feeds impoverished populations and working in the area’s local food bank. The CSC has also hosted service days at the Ronald McDonald House and the Boys and Girls Club of Knoxville.

Events Committee. The CHP Events Committee sponsors enriching events throughout the year that complement an honors education while building a sense of community among CHP students. Past events have included Trivia Nights and the Honors Holiday Party. The Committee also coordinates the annual Honors Week.
