Present Successes and Future Challenges in Honors Education is the
first volume in an edited series examining the proliferation of
honors programs and colleges in American higher education. While
honors education has become ubiquitous in American higher
education, this transformation has happened without systematic
attempts to align what honors means across institutions, and absent
a universally agreed upon definitions of what honors is and what it
might aspire to be in the future. This generates possibility and
flexibility, while also creating rather serious challenges. The
contributors document the decades-long structural transformations
that led to the rise of honors education while also providing
perspective on the present and future challenges in honors
education. The chapters address such issues as ensuring equity in
honors, how we ought to think about student success and frame this
for external stakeholders, and how the diffusion of honors-inspired
pedagogies elsewhere in the university forces us to rethink our
mission and our day-to-day practice. Throughout, their
investigations are grounded in the present while turning a keen and
perceptive eye to the future.
