What were some positive aspects of your honors experience?Text ResponseFelt as if the professor was able to discuss more with the class making one's opinion valuable.Excellent courses taught by dedicated, engaged professors -- without exception.intellectual discussions in classReduced class size and the option to learn more about things I cared about Registering early definitely improved my grade outcomesEarly enrollment.I liked living in ClementsSmaller class sizes gave you more access to the professor for helpPhilosophy of logic encouraged my atheismGreat classes and professorsEarly registrationThe class was small. I only took one honors course.Interesting classesSmaller class sizesGot to work with distinguished professors and faculty to challenge myself academically and further my knowledge in my study of interest.None, I just got a cool certificate and that was it. It looks good on my resume but so does my GPA so I don't think it was worth my time.The courses were actually challenging and the professors interesting. Plus, I was able to register early and therefore create a schedule that was conducive to my overall academic success.I was able to personalize my courses a little bit more and study what really interested me. I liked that.Smaller classes with great students and professors.I enjoyed the small class sizes, discussion style of classes, as well as more variation in assignments such as projects and essays outside of standard multiple choice tests. I also felt that these classes provided more depth in the subject matter covered than regular courses. I also had a wonderful experience with the Honors Research Fellows program. I was able to gain academic presentation, research, and publication experience.Small class sizes, greater emphasis on writing and discussion, challengingI just took a 1 hour honors freshman seminar class. It was nice because it was only like 10 students and it was very relaxed.Smaller classes, worked with other hardworking studentsAlpha Kappa Delta was well organized and a great way to meet other students as enthusiastic about doing well in school as I was.I loved the small class size and interactive teaching.Most of my honors professors were very good. They enriched my knowledge on the course, and they presented the material in a very interesting way. They where very prepared and dedicated to their students, and they were very willing to work with us to help us learn the material.It was smaller classes.None, I did not have a positive experience with my honors courses.Getting into grad schoolI originally started taking Honors courses when I came in as a Freshman because I was told by my adviser at the time that in order to keep my McFadden scholarship I would have to take at least one honors class per semester. The early registration times were also really nice. I made A's in all three of my honors classes, and can say I thoroughly enjoyed 2 of them, much more so than I think I would have enjoyed a non-Honors course in those areas.I only took one class. I really enjoyed it because there was a better student-teacher ratio.I liked being in classes with smart students who were just as dedicated as I was. I also enjoyed having one of the best professors in the department teach my course. My honors POLS 331 course in the Fall of 2011 was my only negative experience with an honors professor (I still wonder how he ended up teaching that section...). Aside from that, I enjoyed that the professors treated us like actual college students, and recognized our desire to go above and beyond.Smaller classes, higher level class discussions, being in class with students and professors who cared.Working with other honors students on projectsSmaller class sizes, independent research assignments, better professors.Not sure what to saySmaller class size, high-quality professorsFound out halfway through the semester that the course didn't make and we were completing a more difficult courseload for regular credit.Loved the professor, loved the classThe housing experience was a definite plus - the camaraderie helped me forge friends, the endemic school spirit made me more involved in my activities, and the dorm-wide closeness meant there was always someone there to do homework with or just talk to. The course depth was another great aspect of my experience The honors courses I took always left me with a greater understanding of my subject. I retain knowledge the best when I know the foundation upon which the knowledge is built; understanding how the subject matter relates is derived is a component of my honors courses that made them my favorite, and was sadly absent from non-honors courses. Finally, the honors professors were amazing, both in their knowledge and the ability to explain that knowledge in ways a novice like me could understand. Their enthusiasm for their subject was infectious, and every honors course I took made me want to take more.I did not enjoy the honors class I took.the sophomore advisors and the community aspect of the freshmen honors dorms was great!I enjoyed the smaller class sizes and professorsI enjoyed the few honors classes that I did attend and I enjoyed the early registrationEarly registration Small classes Good professors Mentors One on one with advisorsSmall classes, good professors, surrounded by smart students, challenging course loadCornerstone program and studying abroadI liked having honor society meetings and meeting people from my major.Living in Lechner Hall and then Clements Hall.The class sizes were my favorite part because, as a freshmen, all of my other courses were giant lectures of 100+ students.The professors I got to meet and get to know better were really awesome. Most of them teach honors classes because they like to get to know their students better than they can in huge lecture hall classes.great classes and smart people. a lot of my good friends came from the honors programsI met some of my best friends. I was challenged.Early registrationRecognition and pride in my education. Ability to use honor on my resume.Smaller class sizes and better professors!Gained public speaking experience.Great teachingSmaller classes with relevant work and material. Challenging.The challenge and participation involved in smaller classesSmaller classes, better professorsThe course material was always very challenging but stimulated my interest every semester. The class sizes were also smaller, allowing each student more time and opportunity to get to know the professors.These are, in my view, the major benefits (in no particular order): small class sizes; discussion-oriented classes; higher percentage of academically oriented and engaged students; higher percentage of smarter students (sorry, not sure how better to put this); more engaged professors; and even higher likelihood of making friends. All of these benefits are further enhanced in upper-division classes. Honestly, from the perspective of a liberal arts (philosophy) major, it's much closer to getting an education at a more traditionally liberal arts oriented college/university. If I had come in as a freshmen (not a transfer), and if I didn't have time constraints due to finances (I survived mostly on savings), I would have attempted to take every single class possible as honors.I could put it on my resumeChallenging and interesting course work, like minded students.Great classes, great teachers, fun outside educational assignmentsEasier classes, early registrationn/afun, challenging, better pacing than non-honors courses, good benefits (community and early registration)The class was much better, smaller size, and more challenging. I think I learned more than if I had been in the regular class.smaller classesChallenging, camaraderie, leadership, network, educational, diverse, funGreat interaction, depth, and small class size.StatisticValueTotal Responses7216. What improvements would you recommend that the University Honors Program implement?Text ResponseNonemore focus on individual honors classes rather than the graduation distinctionMake things more clear about how to pursue and secure distinction as well as the options granted to honors students through a meeting at the beginning of freshman year or a required advisor visitThe honors professors are awful. The teach with much less effort. They are disorganized and come to class with no preparation especially in the math department. They think that because it is an "honors" class that they do whatever they want and call it "stream of consciousness" as an excuse. The whole program is rubbish. They make us jump through pointless hoops to put the word "honors" on our degree. I feel that this program has taken time away from things that could actually prepare me for things after college like a job or seeking more financial independence. Also, it focuses on liberal arts which really puts off scientists and engineers.NOt force the students to take every class as honorsOffer more relevant classes honors. It is frustrating that the class needed to complete an honors distinct aren't offered honors.Admittance to incoming freshman more encouragedMore honors classes for university required coursesdidn't like the professorsNo improvements recommended.Not available within my majorDon't let Dr. Maggard teach ENGR 111. He was an arrogant man who lorded over his students, treating them like they were worthless idiots. He soured me on taking honors courses. In other words, be very careful who you let teach the courses.Not require honors status to register for honors courses. That limit kept me from taking some really intriguing classes that I could have benefitted from!Not sure, the only thing I got from the program other than the certificate is a bunch of junk e-mails.If you change the policies/requirements for the program one semester before a student graduates, please make it so they can still graduate with honors distinctions under the requirements in which they entered the program.When I applied for a Rhodes Scholarship, the Honors office refused to help because I did not go through their specific process. They told me that because I hadn't done it that way, I would never be able to complete the application. I was.NoneI do not like the new requirement of attending an honors event every semester.Make more honors classes available, continue to be committed to smaller class sizes throughout budget cuts, greater visibility (know several people who didn't know there was an honors option)I decided to not continue in Honors because the requirements to get actual distinctions were ridiculous. I would have had to retake several classes and take several classes I didn't need in my major. So I would recommend doing away with that or lowering the requirements in some way.More honors course offerings.Drop the GPA requirement from 3.5 to 3.0The Honors Program should do a better job in engaging its students in the Honors Community. I didn't get involved in the Honors community cause I didn't really know how I could. I think the mandatory housing for Freshmen will help get students more engaged in the Honors program.I would suggest the Honors Program professors be more understanding of the different learning abilities.Prior to taking honors courses, I had been told by my academic advisor that honors courses were "enriched" rather than "accelerated", meaning that the honors courses exposed students to more content or got to go more in depth on particular subjects than normal. This turned out to be false. The honors courses were nothing but more homework, with no additional exposure to the subject. To improve this, actually make the honors coursework enriched, otherwise its not worth the headache.There isn't anything that I would changeAs an engineer, after finishing your first year there really aren't any honors choices left. For me this was a non-issue as I no longer had above a 3.5 GPR, however I do know many people that stopped taking honors courses specifically for the fact that it just became extra work, not differentiated work. As an engineer, the workload is already overwhelming, taking a class as "honors" to just do more work would really exacerbate the problem.No idea.Make it known! I didn't find out until my sophomore year that I could take honors; apparently I had been qualified to do it the whole time. This is what prevented me from being able to graduate with honors. Well that and the highly over-inflated view that the honors office has of its program, and the reluctance to aid students who are sophomores to pursue a graduation with honors.Offer more options for honors courses to take. It seems like the options have dwindled the past few semesters.just make you take honors courses in your major and not other ones that don't matter to youAutomatic pre-registration enrollment. Clearer info on how to obtain honors distinctions.Not sureNone in particularmore variety of courses should be offeredOffer the lectures separately from the regular courses. This did occur in earlier classes (chemistry, physics, etc.), but as I moved up in my coursework, the honors and regular courses would share a lecture. My enthusiasm for honors courses wasn't for the fancy sticker I could get on my diploma, it was for the greater knowledge offered by the professor in the setting of exceptionally intelligent students. If I can get the same knowledge without having extra homework problems and harder tests, why would I take the honors course? Two of my sister's math honors professors would have simultaneous lectures and identical tests between the honors and non-honors students, and give bonus points to the non honors students to curve their grade. This is a disincentive for honors courses, and because of antics like this, when possible I would take the non-honors section of courses with shared lectures; I got the benefit without the cost of taking it honors. This should not be a feature of the honors program.The class was much more challenging than the non-honors version and was not worth the time or energy spent on it, or the negative impact it had on my GPA.I had really bad experiences with the advising office for honors and it really discouraged me from pursuing the honors program any furtherOffer more in COMM and SOCII have no improvementsThere could be more emphasis on the Honors Program for prospective students.Dealing with bureaucratic nonsense in the Honors Office is what drove me away.I have heard that the Research fellows program involves turning in the abstract for their paper toward the beginning before they get all of their data and results, but you can not write an abstract without results, so maybe that should be changed.I stopped taking honors courses because Honors early registration was a bureaucratic nightmare.no major improvement recommendations.Upper level course availability in Engineering majors or encouragement to petition for a course to be treated as honors.noneMake it easier for engineers to earn honors in their upper level classes. I think many professors would be glad to teach honors sections of their classes!Even smaller class sizesCreate a higher standard for all Honors Students and hold them accountable to ensure that the distinction retains it's original purpose and meaning.Find ways to make it easier to take honors courses continuously without having to take extraneous coursesOoooooh, I wish I wasn't busy with finals--I would love to write an essay for y'all on this! The Honors folks are great. I've had a great experience with them, and I think they make A&M (which I already love) an even better place to be. That said, there's lots of room to grow, which I'm sure the Honors folks are aware of and working on. More upper division classes is a must, I think, so working with the various departments to make this happen is a must. Also, playing up the Honors program more as being academically awesome would be great. We have enough "get a job" classes here--we're an engineering school. But in the liberal arts, A&M doesn't get the respect it deserves, and even if it got the respect it currently deserves, we really need to be even better. I'm being one-sided here, it's true. But in my experience--and I worked for years in the I.T./I.S. industry before returning to school here--it doesn't matter all that much to hiring managers whether a fresh grad has an honors distinction. But for a liberal arts major aiming at grad school (the natural "moving up" in that area), honors distinctions, research, etc, are very important. Also, and I'll stop here due to time constraints on my part, I recommend having the best and most experienced honors professors hold workshops to train newer honors professors on the best ways to teach honors courses. The newer professors sometimes just tack on work or stiffen their grading. The whole learning experience can be very different with a motivated class. Seminar-style classes are possible, and much more rewarding. Dr. Albert Broussard and Dr. Stephen Daniel are examples of professors who really know how to make an honors class a great educational experience.Name Recognition-There did not appear to be any career motivation to take part in honors.If you take one honors course and then do not take one for a semester, it was not possible to take honors courses again, in my experience.Make sure freshmen get in honors classes if they are eligible. I wasn't eligible coming in, but I was after my first semester. I wish I would have known and started taking them sooner. Advisors need to stress this to their students. I always met with my advisor, and she never mentioned it to me.Nonen/amake incoming students more aware of the requirements and distinctionsMaking students more aware of the programs, encouraging them to participate. I didn't hear about it at all during my new student conference when I registered. I blew off classes my first semester and once I got my act together towards november and realized there were such things as honors classes I signed up for one via a waiver, but couldn't pull my GPR above a 3.5 in order to rejoin the honors program.More effective input from HSC and honors students when determining policyStatisticValueTotal Responses6017.
