Meet the Distinguished Honors Faculty Award Recipient of 2016
Elizabeth Howard, Ph.D., professor in the Department of English at Kent State University, has been named the 2016 recipient of the Distinguished Honors Faculty Award.
Dr. Howard has taught the Freshman Honors Colloquium sequence (HONR 10197 and HONR 10297) for a number of years and has directed numerous students in completion of the Senior Honors Thesis/Project as a thesis advisor.
