A LETTER FROM THE HSA
PRESIDENT Our time at Florida State is limited, so we must make the very most of it. Therefore, with every event we plan this year, I've challenged the 2017-2018 HSA Executive Board to think critically about how it will advance our mission of promoting "intellectual growth, social development, and the unification of the University community by providing Honors students opportunities for academic, social, and service involvement." I am so honored to introduce the amazing group of people who are ready, willing, and well-equipped to carry out that mission for all of you. From fundraising and event planning, to philanthropy and recreation, the HSA Executive Board is committed to creating a year full of engaging opportunities that will enhance your individual experience, and the Honors community, as a whole. We look forward to serving all of you. Sincerely, Madison Sarcella HSA President
