[00:00:03.603]The institution has been radically transformed
[00:00:05.682]in the last 15 years, and I think that the
[00:00:10.768]efforts that have been made to address
[00:00:15.105]student needs and student concerns
[00:00:17.757]have been exceptionally well-directed.
[00:00:21.290]And this is true of the student population at large,
[00:00:24.933]and it is true of the honors population, as well.
[00:00:29.424]It is a question of academic support
[00:00:32.193]that the institution offers.
[00:00:34.178]It is a question of emphasizing the value
[00:00:37.598]of academic research, not only in terms
[00:00:41.088]of teaching students how to engage and develop,
[00:00:45.504]and frame a research project, but very importantly,
[00:00:48.573]to have our students work, very often, one on one,
[00:00:52.916]with a faculty member, in a laboratory,
[00:00:55.367]or on a dedicated research project.
[00:00:57.984]The professional relationship that they develop
[00:01:00.294]is enormously valuable.
[00:01:02.891]Students who complete their research project
[00:01:06.945]reflect back on that research experience
[00:01:10.755]as perhaps the most valuable that they've had
[00:01:13.131]here on campus.
