My favorite class has been adolescent development, a psychology course taught by Professor Allison Geballe. This class embodied experiential education. We had to interview and write about an adolescent we knew. I also liked Professor Geballe’s teaching style, which was very interactive. Her class was never boring.

My favorite course has been a special topics honors course, the psychology and sociology of social inequality, which was taught by Professor Patrick McGrady and Professor Rachel Torello. This course developed my ability to analytically examine the world around me and the diverse advantages and disadvantages we all face.

 

 

My favorite class has been legal research and writing taught by Professor Karen Redlich. This course is what drove me to apply to law school and showed me that I have what it takes to become a lawyer. However, most importantly, this class helped me realize that I truly love the law and all the work that it entails.

 

 

My favorite class has been an honors introduction to criminal justice course taught by Dr. David Schroeder. I took this class my freshman year and it directly resulted in my studying abroad a semester later due to the professor’s strong advocacy for the program.

 

 

 

I would encourage those who are interested in the Honors Program to go for it! Joining the Honors Program was one of the best decisions I made and I believe that all honors students, who continue with the program until their senior year, leave UNH with more than the experiential education that is promised by the university.

The Honors Program is a great opportunity and students should make sure to take advantage of all that the program has to offer. In order to make the Honors courses fit into your schedule, try taking ones that fulfill core requirements or apply to your major.

 

 

 

I wanted to enhance my educational experience with more diverse, engaging, and challenging courses, as well as seize unique opportunities to increase my social and cultural awareness.
