Loyola University Chicago

Interdisciplinary Honors Program

Honors BIPOC Coalition (HBC)

WHO ARE WE?

We are Honors BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and other People of Color) students who came together in order to improve the Loyola Honors Program for all students, but especially for marginalized populations. We envision an Honors Program that reflects a holistic view of all Honors students and promotes mutual respect. Our mission is to create a more welcoming and affirming space for BIPOC students through the diversification of the student population, curriculum, and faculty and to provide greater support for marginalized students. 

GET INVOLVED

We hope to have weekly meetings and host events at least once a month! HBC will be hosting town halls, guest speakers, discussions on books and pop culture in relation to the honors program, and potentially facilitate field trips to the art museum!
