Alum Success

Maria DiValentin

"I chose to transfer to Lake Superior State University because of the personal attention I would receive. I did not want to attend a large university where I would be a number lost in the masses. The well-rounded curriculum allowed me to obtain my position at John Deere. Having a good balance of theory and hands-on knowledge is critical for my position and Lake State gave me a good foundation in these skills."

Message from the Director

The Honors Program is a unique program on a unique campus. We take high achieving and motivated students, and, through our close work with them, we help those students to bring their own gifts to fruition. We require much of our students: academic focus, leadership, and conscientiousness. The Michigan Honors Association conference, the Fall retreat, and the Senior Thesis experience have become hallmarks of our Program in recent years. I look forward to our being joined by the future honors students, who will inherit our traditions and shape our future.

Fire Science with Honors...

SavannahSue Rondeau
Fire Science

"I love the fast pace environment, the people in the profession, and the adrenaline rush of running into a burning building or saving someone’s life," she says.

Rondeau chose Lake Superior State University because it offers the first accredited four-year fire science degree in the United States. She also jumped at the challenge of LSSU's Honors program, which requires her to complete 21 Honors credits, including 10 credits for an Honors seminar/thesis project.
