Hermon High School students visited the University of Maine campus on Saturday, October 17 as part of the Honors College Open House. The Honors College provides opportunities for motivated students to investigate diverse academic disciplines, to be challenged in a supportive intellectual environment, and to engage enthusiastic fellow students and faculty in thoughtful, provocative discussions. Students in the Honors College complete an academic major in one of the university’s five degree-granting colleges while completing most of their core curriculum requirements, an Honors Portfolio, and a culminating, two-semester project.
Students attended mock classes, spoke with Honors College students about their research, and attended Student Poster Showcase.
