Thoughts on Civic Honors

Imagine a world where anyone who wanted to volunteer some of their time had one place they could go to find out how to participate. Understating that individuals are all different and that bringing all of their individual strengths, capacity, and skill specialization will benefit the community. Imagine if you will, a world where there was no gap between the individual who wanted to benefit society and the organization that desperately needed their help. A world of accessible information created by universities an organization with potential to make this world a reality. This is something that is not only possible but also could be achieved quickly if the time and effort are put into the program. This is an idea that can quickly become reality if the right motivation and intentions are used to view the potential of what can be achieved. It is possible to motivate individuals within the community by focusing on their civic attitudes and participation within the community. It is very important to be able to start designing the civic honors program with the end in mind. One of the first steps is being able to identify how the program can develop into the vision of what is possible.
