鈥淕oing forward, I believe NCHC has given me the keys needed to become a better leader
within honors 鈥� one that is more involved, engaged, and confident,鈥� said Cullen, the
vice-president of the Honors Program.

鈥淚 think one of the best parts about NCHC was the fact that I got to connect and network
with more students and faculty than I thought I would,鈥� said Paudel, the secretary
of the Honors Program. 鈥淲hen the attendees were sharing ideas, success stories, and
even problems in their honors program, I realized the importance of a different perspective
and the importance of a diverse community.鈥�

鈥淭hrough the lectures presented by various Honors institutions, I feel empowered with
confidence and competence to influence not only in my community but potentially the
world with the skills I have learned through the Honors Program. For that, I am grateful,鈥�
said Perez, a senior class representative for the Honors Program.

opportunity to learn from other honors programs; simultaneously, for other programs
to see what is successful at 蜜桔直播.鈥�
