Honors Projects & Poster Presentations
Honors projects, involving a wide variety of forms and subjects, are potentially the most valuable
component of an honors education. Students have analyzed the structure of beaver dams, designed and constructed a
stained glass window, choreographed and performed an original dance, and developed complex computer interfaces. These
examples represent the creative norm common to honors projects, not the exception.
