Adam Costa of Rochester, a sophomore at Bridgewater State University, has been selected to the National Collegiate Honors Council Board of Directors, where he will help shape the organization’s efforts in supporting institutions and individuals in developing, implementing and expanding honors education across the U.S.
“I am happy that I will be representing the Honors Program on the national level, and I think this will lead to many good things for our program at Bridgewater State University down the road,” he said.
Honors programs cover a wide variety of courses, teaching styles and educational objectives, all geared toward offering students academic enrichment. According to NCHC, the programs are based on the belief that superior students profit from close contact with faculty, small courses, seminars or one-on-one instruction, course work shared with other gifted students, individual research projects, internships, foreign study, and campus or community service.
