Abstract
While scholars of online education have been developing ways to foster a sense of belonging in online spaces for years, many of us in honors were thrown into the deep end for the first time in March 2020. As a result, we are now able to see the potential of online practices in a way we could not previously. This chapter tells the story of how we came to see the value of virtual community made possible by digital technology as an invaluable complement to the in-person work of a twenty-first-century honors program. Before the Work from Home (WFH) era, the Johnson County Community College Honors Program had an online presence that was limited to a few social media platforms. Similarly, at Hillsborough Community College, the honors program’s online presence was limited to social media.
