Smittcamp Family Honors College
Established in 1998, the Smittcamp Family Honors College has consistently been recognized as one of the top programs of its kind in the western United States. This highly selective program provides unique learning opportunities for academically accomplished and highly motivated students. Over 90% of scholars come from the four-county areas of Fresno, Tulare, Kings, and Madera. After graduation, the majority of our alumni choose to make the Central Valley their home, not only contributing to the overall economic growth of California but addressing and solving issues specific to our Valley communities.
Smittcamp Family Honors College Alumni Endowment
The Smittcamp Family Honors College, which was established with a generous gift from the late Earl and Muriel Smittcamp, is a highly selective program that provides unique learning opportunities for academically accomplished and highly motivated students. We are extremely thankful for the continued investments made by the Smittcamp family. However, additional private support will be necessary to keep pace with the rising costs of tuition and housing. Your donation will directly support the President's Honors Scholarships.
Smittcamp Family Honors College Student Success Fund
The Smittcamp Family Honors College directly impacts social mobility and economic vitality in the Central Valley. Bright young scholars who might otherwise attend universities outside of the area are attracted to the unique opportunities offered by the Honors College. The Smittcamp Family Honors College Student Success Fund provides essential support to address the unmet needs of students, including research and travel funding, technological support, and other educationally related expenses.
Lisa Hardamon Scholarship
Lisa Hardamon was the first staff member hired by the Smittcamp Family Honors College in 1999 and served as a "second mom" for many generations of Smittcamp Scholars until her retirement in 2019. Your donation will help support the President's Honors Scholarships and celebrate Lisa's 20 years of dedicated service to both Fresno State and the Honors College.
