Why Honors? My undergraduate honor's experience opened my eyes to what a broad and integrated education could be and set me on a path of interdisciplinary scholarship that continues to this day. We need more scholars and thinkers who can see the world holistically as they swap and combine different disciplinary lenses.

Jennifer Haraguchi
Associate Professor, French & Italian| Humanities
Why Honors? Because Honors classes push us all--students and professors alike--to test new ideas, re-evaluate what we already know, and integrate that knowledge into our own realm of experience.

Jason Kenealey
Associate Professor, Nutrition, Dietetics & Food Science | Life Sciences
Why Honors? Because I like a challenge. I like the challenge of teaching and learning in a new way. I enjoy interacting with students and faculty that think differently than I do. It helps me to be more well-rounded and thoughtful about the difficult problems I am trying to solve in my research.

Brock Kirwan
Professor, Psychology | FHSS
Why Honors? Because my nerdy obsessions don’t respect disciplinary bounds. I love talking about the neuroscience and psychology of memory, but I also love learning and talking about music, literature, animal behavior, home canning, etc. The Honors program is a great way to explore new interdisciplinary connections.

Professor, French & Italian | Humanities
Why Honors? Because no program on campus is as dedicated to bridging disciplinary divides and fostering connective thinking. French philosophers of Enlightenment (my intellectual heros) would be proud!
