In notifying him of the news, the college’s Honors Program Director wrote him: “I think that the first semester of college is the most difficult because it requires so many adjustments beyond academics, and so, to my mind, this makes your achievement even more impressive.  I hope to see you take advantage of the Honors events that the Program offers each semester. Keep up the good work!”
