Wondering what's up with the Honors Workshop?
Go to ISIS and you will see that there are two sections, each with a long and overlapping time on Thursdays. On weeks where there is a guest speaker, the two sections will meet together but only for a common 75 minute period, not for the whole long session. On weeks where there is not a guest speaker, each section will meet for the same separate 75 minute period as they do on Tuesday. Prof. Szczesiul from English will be teaching Workshop. It should be a great experience.
NOTE: The Honors Workshop (since Fall 2005) now fulfills the Honors Writing Requirement. You must complete the Honors Workshop before beginning your thesis.
As part of the Chancellor's Inauguration festivities, author Jonah Lehrer (Proust was a Neuroscientist) came to campus. He chatted with students in the Honors Workshop and presented a talk entitled, "The Future of Science is Art" to an engaged and receptive audience. The Honors Program purchased copies of his book for students in the program; if you haven't picked up your copy, you may still do so.
