What is an Honors Professor?


 

Honors professors are a wonderfully diverse group of some of the finest instructors in their field who value scholarship, invite collaboration, cultivate creativity and perseverance, appreciate spontaneity and excellence, and, above all, delight in teaching . The majority of honors professors have worked with and contributed to the success of the program for many years. However, because of the “Honors Proposal” process, which invites professors in any discipline to design and teach an honors course in their field, each semester brings new faces, styles and experiences into the honors mix. As is true with honors coordinators, honors professors are dedicated to inspiring their students to reach for the stars to become the finest educated people that they can be.
