The transformation <strong>of</strong> our venerable <strong>Honors</strong> Program into a full-fl edged <strong>Honors</strong> <strong>College</strong> this<br />
year represents a cornerstone <strong>of</strong> our focus on quality. Along with the strong academic programs<br />

can have as challenging and productive an academic experience here as at any college or university<br />
in the country-and at a fraction <strong>of</strong> the cost.<br />
