Welcome from the Dean 

Welcome to the latest edition of The Dialogue! Whether you are a student, faculty member, alumna/us, or friend of Honors, we are grateful for your engagement with and commitment to excellence as embodied by our students.

The Elliott T. Bowers Honors College is a place where intellectual curiosity, creativity, and a passion for learning thrive. Each year, we celebrate the achievements of our students and faculty, highlight exciting opportunities for academic and personal growth, and share stories that reflect our community’s values. This newsletter serves as a window into the remarkable work being done by our scholars as well as a resource to keep you connected and informed.

In this edition, you will find inspiring student spotlights, seminar highlights, thesis features, and reflections from our distinguished faculty and alumni. I encourage you to discover the many opportunities available to our students—from research funding, conferences, and study abroad programs to leadership and community-engagement initiatives—that have contributed to their educational and professional goals.

Finally, I invite you to share your stories, accomplishments, and ideas by emailing us at honors@shsu.edu. Our college is strengthened by the contributions of each of you, and we look forward to celebrating your successes in our next newsletter.

Thank you for being part of our vibrant college. I hope you find this newsletter both informative and inspiring.
