How has HSP participation enhanced your college experience at UNI? The Honors Program has enhanced my experience at UNI by connecting me with driven peers and providing opportunities in leadership and in-depth learning that I wouldn't have had otherwise.

What is your favorite part about being in Honors & Scholars Programs? My favorite part about being in the Honors and Scholars program is having smaller class sizes. I feel more comfortable to share out and it makes the classes more engaging! 

How has your HSP experience prepared you for life after UNI? The Honors and Scholars experience has strengthened my communication skills, sharpened my critical thinking, and taught me to consider all viewpoints. These are all skills I’ll carry with me after UNI.
