Your Honors Newsletter for spring 2022 is here! 

In his opening letter, Honors Program Director Dr. Shaun Vecera dissects the “different beast” that is honors experiential learning and, in the pages that follow, you’ll find articles illuminating this type of knowledge--about students active in UISG, a long-awaited study abroad trip to Greece, the experiential course Writing and Community Outreach, honors students in “The Theatre Life,” and a profile of student regent Abby Crow.

Also in this issue, our writers contributed tips for students on the pre-law track, thoughts on “Being a Woman in Honors,” and a preview of Dr. Emily Hill’s special topics class, Classic Cult Cinema. Don’t miss “Will you PSP my Valentine,” the photo essay featured on our cover, the Q & A with crack design team Thomas and Lydia, or the heartfelt “One Last Edit” by graduating senior Jacob Sammon.

Have a great break! Honors staff are here throughout the summer so do be in touch for advising or conversation.

Yours,

Holly Blosser Yoder

Honors Advising Director
