■ nonors I A ' X Vicc MCiX ' e nijaLc u itx ' fy The Temple Honors program is a small, tight-knit community involved in many aspects of Temple life. Encompassing majors from Chemical Engineering to Journalism to Math to Dance, the Temple Honors community admits incoming freshman and transfer students based on academic record, teacher recomme ndations and SAT scores. Honors courses are offered not only for core classes, but in many other intriguing, interest-based areas as well, allowing a student to fulfill his or her Honors core with anything from Honors Calculus to Political Protest in the 60s. Many students enjoy the community feel and intellectual stimulation these classes provide. Honors classes are smaller, more interesting, and have a class make up with a high level of intelligence. Although honors professors might expect a little more than normal, they make up for it with their interesting personalities, said Steve Smith, a freshman majoring in Psychology.
