The Honors Community encouraged me to deeply engage with difficult questions and concepts in a way that fostered intellectual, professional, personal, and spiritual growth unrivaled by any other experience I've had. The support and love I received from relationships built within Honors were crucial to my success during some really difficult times, and the conversations I had during my time at Union are still forming the way I think about work, life, and scholarship years later.

The way the professors live stays with me vividly. Their attentiveness to and love for students, their wonder at the material, and their Christlikeness have become models of virtue for me... I have learned under some incredibly zealous, humble, faithful, hopeful, love-ful teachers, and my soul has been and will continue for years to be turned nearer to God because of them.

The Honors Community was hands down the most formative element of my intellectual development at Union.
