Event coordinators
Event coordinators (ECs) are responsible for planning large scale events for honors students. This includes writing funding proposals, composing budgets, and event logistics. They are crucial resources for council events and take the lead on major HHCA events and programs. They also assist in other aspects of the organization such as attendance, weekly updates, technological needs, etc. Each event coordinator plans at least 2 events each year for all of the students in the Hutton Honors College. These events require months of planning. Recent examples of the events they are responsible for include the Bagel Brunch, HHC Open House, Study Abroad Fireside, Ice Skating, and The Etiquette Dinner.

Each is affiliated with one neighborhood to provide specific advice, build relationships, and fill a mentorship role. They provide feedback for leadership growth and help new members grow in the organization.
