Gipson Honors Program
Home
Gipson Scholars
Gipson Scholars develop individual program contracts and work within the spirit of the college’s liberal arts objective. High scholarship and substantial senior honors papers or projects are expected of all participants.
In 1972, the college established a program for students with superior high school records and named it in honor of Lawrence Henry Gipson, a distinguished historian, Rhodes Scholar and Pulitzer Prize winner who began his academic career at The College of Idaho in its early years.
The mission of the Gipson Honors Program is to give C of I students an opportunity to direct their own educations. Honors curricula are shaped by student-designed projects which are interdisciplinary, experiential inquiries into the natural sciences, social sciences, fine arts, or the humanities.
