What Current Students Have to Say:
Being an Honors Fellow means...

"…trying to take advantage of every
opportunity presented to you and making the most of
it. It means challenging yourself in ways that
may initially seem uncomfortable…. A
good Honors student is someone who thinks critically
and reflectively about his or her life, and how that
life will affect others…."
~ Jessica Young, Psychology and Spanish major

“…[showing] enthusiasm for
learning. Honors students are eager to tackle new
subjects and projects, and to prepare themselves for
making an impact in the world after college.”
~ Allison Pariani, Religious Studies major

“being a leader and …[giving] superior
effort on each assignment. Good Honors students
face the challenges that their professors give them
head-on. [They] highly prioritize academic
excellence.”

…being passionate and … intelligent both
in the classroom and outside the classroom. Honor
