4 The <strong>Honors</strong> <strong>College</strong><br />

T H E H O N O R S C O L L E G E A T<br />

Our honors college would <strong>of</strong>fer U<strong>Maine</strong> students the best <strong>of</strong> both stellar academic<br />

worlds—the focus, intimacy, and challenges <strong>of</strong> the best liberal arts schools, as well as<br />

the breadth <strong>of</strong> academic diversity, co-curricular and extra-curricular activities, and exposure<br />

to graduate-level education and populations that are part <strong>of</strong> a land-grant university experience.<br />

<strong>Honors</strong> Students would hold “dual citizenship” in the college <strong>of</strong> their discipline<br />

and in the <strong>Honors</strong> <strong>College</strong>.<br />

Our society - and its security and prosperity- depend on citizen<br />

One way we intend to provide that experience is through expan<br />

est, by the way--to create an <strong>Honors</strong> <strong>College</strong>. This college will b<br />

tives from across the disciplines. The curriculum and format wi<br />

that they could fi nd anywhere. <strong>Honors</strong> will integrate academic<br />

program like this exists in <strong>Maine</strong>.<br />
