Abstract

For some students, intellectual curiosity and leadership are innate. For many, it must be nurtured. The Shaw University Honors College is an academic center of encouragement, interaction, and care for a diverse population of students. Many of them would otherwise never conceive of the marvelous opportunities and experiences they share during their college sojourn and later in their adult lives. Even though the hundred or more historically black colleges and universities do not all have honors programs, Shaw University has made this commitment to transform the lives of its scholars.
