an interest in the work of one of the panelists. Although he and I are in entirely different
academic departments, we were both interested in Karam Danas, Islam and Muslims in Western
Contexts. Additionally, I have found Honors 100s presentation of resources and advising
exceptionally helpful. Through this course, I have gained a peer educator that studies in a field
quite similar to mine as well as an introduction to numerous other resources that I am confident I
will utilize throughout my time in Honors. These resources include Honors advisers and Honors
study abroad opportunities. Ultimately, Honors 100 has welcomed me to an exceptional
institution of interdisciplinary education and experiential learning. I have been challenged to
spread my critical thought process across a variety of fields and urged not to limit my curiosity.
