A different kind of honors education
If men had postponed the search for knowledge and beauty until they were secure, the search would never have begun. C.S. Lewis, Learning in Wartime
We believe that we need one another to do the hard work of seeking the truth. Working collaboratively, a Torrey Honors education is aimed at helping students see more and see rightly. When we come together to share in this work, we dont just grow intellectually. We find transformation along the way.
Cohort Discussions
From day one, students are matched into cohorts tightly knit discussion groups made up of students from diverse backgrounds and majors. Cohorts are more than just a learning community, they are a fellowship of Christian sisters and brothers dedicated to draw out the best in each other. For four years, students refine one another in friendship and cultivate the skills they need for a lifetime of learning and growing.
Faculty Mentorship
On a formative journey, guides are essential. Thats why every single incoming Torrey Honors student is matched to a faculty mentor. This professor serves as a one-on-one guide, coach and advocate for all four years. Our faculty challenge their students to rise to greater excellence as they journey with them and model faithful, patient learning. Its mentorship that is intellectual, personal and lasting.
Interdisciplinary Discipleship
We seek truth in the different kinds of books we read and in the thoughts, experiences and expertise of each member of our community. As we pursue holistic understanding through multiple subjects, we cultivate a posture of humility, tenacity and curiosity thats essential to studying the Bible well. We unpack its meaning and wrestle with its hard questions. Its a rigorous theological education that will shape your faith.
