Abstract

First paragraph:

The most common focus of research and discourse about honors is how to recruit the right students and how to create for them the most supportive environment. Far less often have we asked the same questions about honors faculty. Finding and keeping the best teachers is at least as essential to a good education as creating a singular mix of exceptional students, but we tend to be more haphazard in this process, to trust our instincts, go with our gut. This issue’s Forum on “Creating an Honors Faculty” examines the practice of attracting, developing, and keeping excellent teachers who will create an exciting and consequential education for our special community of honors students.
