The University Honors Program offers high-achieving, enthusiastic, motivated students many of the personal and intellectual advantages of a small liberal arts college within the diversity of a large research university. The emphasis in our seminars is on intensive reading, writing, and discussion in which reasoned self-expression and critical thinking are valued and rewarded.
