On Friday, Nov. 22, the Judy Genshaft Honors College hosted its annual Friendsgiving dinner for residents of the Tampa Honors Living Learning Community (LLC) and the Holcombe and Jenkins Scholars programs. Twenty-eight ܽƵapps gathered in the Honors College Forum to share a meal and exchange Thanksgiving traditions. 
 
Friendsgiving is one of many events hosted each semester by the Honors LLC to help ܽƵapps build connections within the LLC and USF. These gatherings create opportunities for ܽƵapps to meet and engage with peers outside the classroom. 
 
The evening featured a spread of Thanksgiving staples, including turkey, mashed potatoes, green bean casserole, and carrots. One happy ܽƵapp noted it was “the best meal the Honors College ever provided!” 
 
After an eventful semester, the event was a great opportunity for ܽƵapps to relax, enjoy delicious food, strengthen their sense of community, and share all that they are grateful for.
