“Teaching in the Honors program allows for the kind of untrammeled exchange of thoughts on controversial issues that is refreshing and a reminder of why I became a college professor in the first place.”


Dr. Sudesh Mujumdar

Associate Professor of Economics


“While my passion for teaching remains in health professions, I thoroughly enjoy the interaction and diversity presented by facilitating Honors 101. I've had the pleasure of working with honors students for four years and these students come equipped with a sense of curiosity and openness that is refreshing and necessary for tackling the tougher questions. I instituted a discussion blog as part of the course and the students have run with it. Having past students act as in-class mentors has helped the new students adjust and improve their thinking process. Overall, it’s fun.”

Dr. Kevin J. Valadares

of Health Services/Administration
