Honors Bulletin
All the Honors News that's Fit to Print
Last Day!
I'm back for your last day of classes and one of the last bulletins of 2018. For some of you, it's the end of your first semester (YOU'VE ALMOST MADE IT!) and some of you it's your penultimate semester (YOU'VE ALSO ALMOST MADE IT! in a different way). And some of you are in that middle.
Wherever you are, we want to remind you to finish strong here. Finals can be overwhelming, if you let them. Don't. You are going to do this, you're going to make it through, you're going to thrive. Just remember to be PERFECT. Please watch that link and tell me you're not fired up! Truthfully, this message is for me, just as much as it is for you. Newborn babies are scary/fun/exhausting/enchanting!

HERTOG FOUNDATION FELLOWSHIPS AND SEMINARS
our website, The Hertog Foundation offers a variety of seminars on topics in political thought and public policy. Fellows study classic texts in conversation with contemporary issues – including partisanship in American politics, the rise of nationalism, and the dynamics of our political institutions. In addition,they offer a seminar, the Political Studies Program, a highly selective fellowship in the theory and practice of politics for undergraduates and very recent graduates (2018 or 2019).
All fellowships come with housing and stipends to offset living and travel costs. Early application deadline is January 14, 2019, and our final deadline is February 11, 2019.
