We in the Honors Program are always impressed by the bonds created between our students and professors. It is no wonder we call it an Honors COMMUNITY. We wanted to share these wonderful photos of a recent trip that our Honors professor and Core Faculty member, John Western, took with his former students to the Whetstone Gulf Gorge. Yes, former students. We are proud that the bonds in the classroom lead to relationships well after our students have left the seats of their former classes. This recent trip just goes to show what wonderful friendships can be created here in the Honors Program!
