So much of your energy in college seems to be spent on a non-transferable skill: writing academic papers! Why do your professors make you write so much, and what do they think you’ll gain from the process? Is academic writing like eating your vegetables - not very fun, but worth it in the end? Join Fred, Paul, and Ellie as we unpack this love-to-hate topic.

----------
Torrey Honors College is the undergraduate honors program at Biola University. We bring together students with different backgrounds from all over the world in pursuit of a common goal.

At Torrey Honors, students read deeply from some of the best books ever written. They gather with close friends to spend hundreds of hours in discussion, searching out answers to big questions together — all while guided by a faculty mentor. And when they graduate, students enter a community dedicated to lifelong learning and pursuing Christ both personally and vocationally.
