Hello, Honors Students!
Thank you for your interest in serving as a Learning Assistant for our first-year learning experience in Honors. We expect to enroll about 125 new students in HNRS 1000 this Fall 2026. We need Learning Assistants in the fall to assist with HNRS 1000 and to provide mentoring to these new students.
HNRS 1000 will be taught in-person on Wednesdays 4:00pm to 6:00pm. Therefore, if you are interested in serving as a Learning Assistant for an HNRS 1000 you will need to leave this time available in your Fall course schedule.
Learning assistants are not required to have taken HNRS 1000. Students may serve as a Learning Assistant more than once. Students completing their learning assistant assignments receive credit toward their Honors Program requirements (Honors Program Elective 1.0 unit; Note: If entered Cal Poly prior to FA25 you can use this as your Co-Curricular Teaching requirement).
This is a great opportunity to meet our new Honors students and assist them during their transition to life at Cal Poly and in the Honors Program. It would be great if you could help us out. You'll have the opportunity to work with a dedicated group of other learning assistants, Honors office assistants, and faculty.
Please contact Dr. J if you have questions, or would like more information. Working as a mentor and learning assistant in HNRS represents an important service to the Honors Program.
Interest form submission is DUE BY MAY 22ND!!
Thank you for your consideration.
Dr. J
