Stan Sarkisov"The class structure of the Honors Humanities seminar very closely resembles my classes in law school. We have challenging assigned readings and we are expected to arrive at class ready to answer tough questions. The Socratic approach sometimes catches you off-guard, forcing you to be ready for different hypothetical situations. The professors push you, but it is a push in the right direction, towards thinking critically. It's hard and it can be scary, but the benefits are worthwhile—and you will succeed."

-Stan Sarkisov, 2007 Honors Degree grad & University of San Francisco Law Student
