I recently completed Honors tutorials in Organic Chemistry and Physiology. For my Organic Chemistry tutorial, I spent several hours a week in the lab collaborating with Professor John Struss on our project, “Benzylic Brominations using Polymeric DABCO Bromine Complex.” After completing our research, I presented the project as part of the Chemistry Seminar Series. For my Physiology tutorial, I wrote a research paper titled “The Neurobiology of Learning and Memory in Insects.”

The University of Tampa’s Honors Program has allowed me to gain a better understanding of my area of study, while also providing the opportunity to become closely acquainted with my professors. I feel that the experience has allowed me to take away more from my classes than if I had not been enrolled in the Honors Program. I plan to complete two more Honors tutorials in order to graduate with Honors distinction. The Honors Program is intellectually challenging and well worth the extra requirements.
