The Kenneth L. Pike Honors Program invites exceptional students with a cumulative GPA of 3.50 or higher to design a unique academic program that creatively complements or extends Gordon College majors or minors in pursuit of their learning goal.
Pike Scholars can take advantage of diverse opportunities at Gordon, internationally or at other institutions in this country to enrich existing majors in unique ways. Scholars design a creative, rigorous program with a depth and breadth that would not ordinarily be available to them at Gordon.
Learn how to consider and build a Pike Program by visiting the Application page. Be sure to consult with your current academic advisor and think about general advising issues.
A Pike Scholar's curriculum must be individually reviewed by the student's Pike Committee and approved by the Academic Programs Committee of the faculty. It becomes a recognized undergraduate program of study for the Pike Scholar as its own major, or as an additional major, minor, or concentration for that student.
Examples of past programs include:
