 The Honors College student body is diverse in every sense -- from the variety of programs in which the students choose to pursue their degrees, to their national and ethnic backgrounds. This variety and diversity make class discussions extraordinarily rich. The close friendships among Honors students are often sparked by a fascination with divergent backgrounds, interests, and expectations. Honors students form a coherent body, unified in its pursuit of academic excellence.
New York and around the country.
The Honors College is a cosmopolitan school located in a cosmopolitan region. The New York area includes not only longtime residents of the United States but also recent immigrants from around the world including countries in Europe, Asia, South America, and Africa. The Honors College also draws students from around the United States. Current Honors College students come from: California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Michigan, Missouri, Oregon, Texas, Virginia, and virtually all the mid-Atlantic and New England states.
Students from abroad.
An important part of the Honors College student body is the international population. Today, in the Honors College you can meet students from Albania, Bulgaria, Canada, Greece, India, Iran, Israel, Madagascar, Nepal, Nigeria, Pakistan, Poland, Russia, Trinidad, Ukraine, and Zimbabwe.
Diversity in the classroom.
Diversity in the Honors College comes in diverse forms! In the fall of 2002 Nicholas Rizopoulos, the Academic Director of the Honors College, conducted a truly international group of Honors College students in a seminar exploring crises in the Cold War. Photographs were taken by an Honors College student.
