Why did you choose Delaware? It was close to home; it had a good Biology program; and I wanted to meet new people.
What has been your favorite Honors class so far? My favorite Honors class was my Honors English 110 course, entitled Conspiracy Theory.
Who has been your favorite Honors professor and why? Dr. Alan Fox. Although I did not take World Religions as an Honors class, he is very good at challenging his students to think outside of the box.
What has been your most rewarding leadership or extra-curricular activity at UD? Undergraduate Research opened up a whole new aspect of science that I never new existed before I came to college. Being able to work with faculty and fellow students has given me confidence in myself and in my ability to use what I have learned in school.
