Cunningham-Bryant, Alicia – Journal of the National Collegiate Honors Council, 2019
Faculty and administrators often present risk-taking as something honors students must do, but rarely do they take risks themselves. In an ideal situation, communal risk-taking would subvert institutional power dynamics, free students from grade-associated anxiety, and enable them to build dynamic partnerships with faculty. This paper discusses…

Walsh, Margaret – Journal of the National Collegiate Honors Council, 2016

Pfrehm, James; Sullivan, Robert – Honors in Practice, 2013
Honors students are, almost by definition, committed to excellence. As a result, they tend to be overextended (Guzy). They also "tend to be more eager, exploratory, and experienced than their non-honors counterparts" (Achterberg 77). They typically take a full load of coursework while at the same time juggling clubs, learning…
