Presentations
Wellness and Adventure in Honors
Format: General Session
Presenters: Dr. Ellen McWhorter, Karly Bowen ’20, Maria D’Auria ’20, Leslie Lima ’21
Description: This session explores the importance for honors students of achieving a state of optimal wellness of body and mind. We will present the results of a survey that investigates student wellness patterns and discuss how honors programs can enact initiatives that model and support wellness.
Rationalizing the Death Penalty
Format: Student Interdisciplinary Research Panels
Presenter: Samantha Pineo ’19
Description: This project asks if capital punishment can be rationalized through Constitutional Law. After extensive research, I argue that it cannot be. I look at the constitution through the lens of a moral reading, case law, and the methods of execution, and then take two objections to my argument.
