Honors Faculty Spotlights
The Wood Honors College has some truly amazing staff and professors, and it's definitely been an adjustment not being able to connect with the Honors community on campus. However, in hopes to keep students connected with their professors during this time, we've started a series on our Instagram account @shiphonors where we post a tidbit of wisdom from our professors along with some fascinating fun facts about things they enjoy!
