William Paterson '21

I have been fortunate enough to take honors courses while also taking on multiple professional internships with different companies. Throughout my college career, I have maintained a strong network of connections, and the Honors Program is one place where I have been able to build such connections. As a firm believer in the value of acquiring experience early in your college career, I believe the more experience one acquires, the more they understand about the industry they want to go into for a career. They are able to apply the knowledge they get to any future situation. I am so thankful for all the opportunities Elizabethtown College has given me over the years. Everyone has been so supportive in helping me build me career’s foundation.

The Honors Program is such a valuable asset to my education here at Elizabethtown College. It has provided me with incredible experiences—particularly the opportunity to work alongside Ambassador John B. Craig on foreign policy projects—that have allowed me to develop my leadership skills, along with apply knowledge from my history and political science majors in meaningful and practical ways. As not only an Honors student, but also a student athlete and Peace and Global Scholar, I believe that the Program gives me the tools to succeed and strive for excellence over the course of my collegiate career and beyond, and I am so grateful to be a part of this extraordinary group of students and faculty!

I am very grateful to Dr. MacKay for his continued mentorship and dedication, especially in my first few semesters when I was very new to research, as well as Dr. Rozners and his research group. The entire Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry at Etown has and continues to be extremely supportive of all student research projects. I fully believe I would not have been able to achieve these accomplishments at a different university, where I would not have received one-on-one training with professors to develop my skills as a chemist, especially not as a first-year student. The Office of Prestigious Scholarships and Fellows along with the SCARP program are unique aspects of Elizabethtown College that encourage and aid in success.
