Forging the Future: A History of the John Martinson Honors College, 2013–2023 is the story of a collaborative effort to build a visionary place: an academic-residential college that would bring together students from across disciplines and differences to rethink the goals and practices of a college education. Designed to be a hub for interdisciplinary learning and innovative pedagogy at Purdue University and a national leader in honors education, the John Martinson Honors College (JMHC) was first and foremost a dream of the future. How that collective dream took shape—from the first, speculative discussions of a college to the literal construction of its buildings and the arrival of its students—is a tale researched, written, and published by the students and alumni of the JMHC. Part institutional history, part biography of a place and its people, Forging the Future is a record of what hope and imagination can accomplish in ten years.Foreword, by Dean Rhonda Phillips Acknowledgments Introduction, by Emily Allen 1 Before the Honors College, by Jonathan Pfluger 2 The Creation of the Honors College, by David Keen 3 Case Study: The First Year, 2013–2014, by Mark Aronson 4 Interdisciplinary Academics, by Sean Giltmier 5 The Building, by Ella Stone 6 Student Community, by Maria Vawter 7 Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging, by Pulkit Manchanda 8 International Engagement, by Isabelle Diaz 9 Leadership, by Elsa Davis 10 Prestigious Scholarships, by Jannine Huby 11 Case Study: The COVID-19 Year, 2020–2021, Veronica Galles 12 Research and Scholarly/Creative Projects, by Ella Hildebrand 13 The Future is Forged Here, by Carissa Ray A Conversation with John Martinson Afterword, by Jannine Huby Afterword, by Pulkit Manchanda About the Contributors Index
