Engage
Want to connect with old friends or help a senior who's worried about what's next?
You've come to the right place to connect with us and our students –– past and present.
Check out the current issue of A+ magazine, which provides a window into our world.
As always, A+ features research by our honors students, on topics ranging from why sports fans
are so loyal to the impact of soothing fussy babies with AI. Be sure to check out
our video, Daylighting Hot Springs, which presents landscape architecture major Zane Colvin's bold proposal for Arkansas'
top tourist attraction. And our Pop Quiz returns this year with some unexpected intel
on our Honors College staff!

David Kaiser, Secret Clocks:
Incorporating Relativity into Global Positioning Systems
Since the invention of smartphones, we have unconsciously been acquainted with key military technology. The map in your pocket does not just account for time spent in traffic: it relies on Einstein’s Theory of Relativity. David Kaiser will explore an early debate among scientists on how to best incorporate relativity in GPS. Join us!
House Concerts
The Honors College House Concerts series was launched when internationally acclaimed concert pianist Jura Margulis first encountered the Honors Student Lounge in Gearhart Hall and predicted that it would be a great space for enjoying music. He was right! The beautifully appointed room provides a comfortable setting for our intimate concerts.
