What is your favorite aspect of the Honors community?

My favorite aspects of the honors community are the unique and interesting seminars. Without the honors college I would not be able to learn more about such diverse topics. My major is very strict so I am lucky to be a part of a program that allows you to extend your educational knowledge outside of your specific realm of study.

What is an academic experience - like a book, project, or research paper - that has had an impact on your life?

A research project that has definitely influenced my life was protein research I have done with Dr. Warren in Molecular Biology lab. Not only did it give me the opportunity to be an Undergraduate Learning Assistant but it also made me realize what I want to pursue in my career. I now know I want to become a researcher and work with proteins and other molecular processes.

What advice would you give a prospective Honors student?

Advice I would give to an prospective honors student is to get involved and find a place with in the community that is going to lift you up and help you grow both professionally and personally. I have met people that have given me amazing opportunities through honors college events and programs.
