Q: How has being part of the Humanities Scholars program impacted your time at the university?
A: Through Humanities Scholars, I have found a supportive class environment that gave me a wonderful introduction to not only humanities, but to research and how to fully use my university resources.
Q: In what ways have you seen improvements in your critical thinking, writing, and
problem-solving skills since joining the program?

Q: Anything else you would like to share about the Humanities Scholars program?
