During Fall Family Weekend, the Honors College hosts two events: our annual family tailgate and the Honors Induction Ceremony. Information for both can be found below.

Honors Family Tailgate | 3-6 pm

Enjoy gameday festivities with the Honors College during our “Fall Family Tailgate." Students and family members are encouraged to stop by our tent to grab a snack, snag some Honors College merch, meet our staff, and simply enjoy the spirit of gameday on the plains. 

Saturday, September 14, 2024

This free "stop and go" event is designed for Honors students and their guests. No registration is needed. Our tailgate tent is located behind Cater Hall on the Upper Quad. 

Those interested in purchasing football tickets, can do so via the Auburn Fall Family Weekend main page.

Honors Induction Ceremony | 1 pm

This ceremony is the formal induction into the Honors College, where students will receive their Honors College pin. Much like the medal bestowed at graduation, this pin signifies membership within the Honors College.

The Honors College medals and pins are not only emblems of membership, but they also serve as recognition of the achievements and the rich undergraduate experiences that students will receive here at Auburn University. Students should take pride in these items as they are a physical embodiment of their time and hard work.

During the ceremony, attendees will hear from administrators, faculty, and past and current students who will share their Honors College experiences and observations. Please note this ceremony will not be live-streamed.
