    FALL 2014 NEWSLETTER Iron Arrow Honor Society THE HIGHEST HONOR ATTAINED AT THE UNIVERSITY OF MIAMI A Message from the Chief Greetings Tribe Members! On behalf of the officers and myself, welcome back to another action packed academic year at our beloved University! We hope your summer was filled with the happiest of memories, but that you are charged and ready for the upcoming semester. In this newsletter, you will find the “official” Fall 2014 schedule, the biography of our phenomenal Fall 2014 Tapping Luncheon speaker, and many other noteworthy announcements. Be sure to check out the bios of our most recent Spring 2014 Tap Class! 2014-2015 OFFICERS As I ponder what is in store for our Tribe this upcoming year, I am reminded of one of my favorite Iron Arrow takeaways: no matter how many accomplishments or accolades we achieve, our C. CAITLIN GILES work as leaders is never done. This duty to lead does not end upon one’s admittance into Iron Chief Arrow, but is a renewed commitment in our day-to-day lives as students, working professionals, 305.562.2478 and community activists. Thank you for continuing to represent the Tribe and University as model [email protected] examples of true leadership, scholarship, character, humility, and love of alma mater. Because of your tenacity, commitment, and vision, we have proven our resilience and successfully advanced BRAD BRADSHAW alongside our groundbreaking University.

    OUR MISSION The mission of Kilachand Honors College is to offer a challenging liberal education grounded in critical and creative thinking and interdisciplinary problem-solving related to important global, societal, corporate, and geopolitical challenges. Kilachand’s integrated, four-year curriculum is augmented by an extensive series of co-curricular events, including visits to cultural institutions, arts events, and discussions with leading scientists, artists, and professionals. All Kilachand students complete a substantial work of empirical or scholarly research, creativity, or invention by the close of their senior year and share the outcomes of their work in a celebratory Symposium. All of these endeavors occur within a supportive living- learning community that offers students educational experiences similar to those of a small liberal arts college with the resources and intellectual depth of a major urban research university. OUR COMMUNITY Kilachand students pursue majors and minors offered by the schools and colleges across Boston University. English, chemistry, and neuroscience majors from the College of Arts and Sciences find themselves working in teams with biomedical engineers from the College of Engineering, business majors from the Questrom School of Business, and painters from the College of Fine Arts. All our first year students live together in Kilachand Hall, where the College advisors, staff, director, and associate directors also have offices. Co-curricular events that enhance the educational goals and the community of the college are also held in Kilachand Hall, offering students opportunities for frequent, informal interactions with faculty and staff. OUR STUDENTS The students who thrive at Kilachand are intellectually curious and courageous, and they want to put their knowledge to use to benefit their communities.
