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.

Being a part of the honors community gives you something to belong to and people to interact with who largely share your academic drive and goals. It is quite possibly the most engaging and positive community on this campus.

Coming into Union, I... was skeptical about the ways my faith could effectively integrate with academics. I was unsure if the questions I had were okay to ask. I would just like to say thank you for welcoming my questions and for demonstrating the ways one can be both a faithful follower of Christ and a thoughtful scholar.
