"Hi! My name is Diona, and I am junior here at Temple - majoring in Political Science.

I enjoy almost everything about the Honors Program. It’s a place to get away from the fast pace of college life, intimate and resourceful. Not only does the Honor’s community have a diverse array of cultures and ethnic groups, but it also has a diverse set of personalities, which is an accurate reflection of the larger Temple community.

One perk of Honors is having a Director whose door is always open and staff that really care about their job and the success of their students. One can get lost in a big University such as Temple - Everyone needs to know that someone out there cares and is there to keep them on the right track. There’s nothing like having someone on your side that cares on top of knowing all the scholarships, awards, programs and classes that can help make your dreams come true. The Honors Program provides all this and more."
