Honors Alternative Spring Break
The Honors Program partners with Illinois State University's Center for Community Engagement and Service Learning to offer a customized experience for Honors students. The model of traditional Alternative Spring Break trips is enriched through the application of the Honors Learning Framework.
Students engage in community-building and educational programming prior to the service-learning trip and join together for a week-long experience grounded in civic engagement. This transformational experience combines learning, serving, and socializing, while creating meaningful memories for participants and those who are positively impacted.

Alternative Spring Break Trip Dates
Sunday, March 9 - Saturday, March 15, 2025
Join us over Spring Break as we travel to Cumberland Trail State Park in Tennessee where we will build, hike, and maintain trails.
We will help construct a completely new section of trail by digging out a new corridor with hand tools. There will also be time to explore the scenic area.
The Center for Civic Engagement released information relating to the cost of ASB in mid-November. The cost of the trip will be no more than $525, covering the majority of expenses.
