Somewhere between the trailhead and the campsite, strangers become the people you eat ramen with at 10 p.m. and laugh with for the next four years.

If you'd like to make a few memories like these, Honors Outdoor Adventure is accepting applications for the upcoming year.

While only incoming Honors students can come on our annual freshman trip, our fall semester activities and trips are open to everyone, and anyone can take our Guide Training course in the spring.

Why do we feel like a lot of those students are also Honors College students? Just a guess.

Elite company. Honors College and Arts & Sciences student Aaron Lim has been named a 2026 Goldwater Scholar, one of the most prestigious undergraduate awards in the nation for students pursuing careers in STEM.

Lim is a third-year student pursuing a chemical biosciences degree. He is one of just a few hundred students nationwide receiving this honor, and is working to innovate within the field of photodynamic therapy, a less common but promising form of cancer treatment that utilizes both drugs and light to fight harmful cells.

“At the end of the day, my goal is to answer, ‘What can I do to maximize my impact on patient care?’” said Lim, who first gained policy experience through another student-led think tank.

First stop: NIH headquarters. Then Oxford or Cambridge 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Congratulations to Honors College and OU Dodge Family College of Arts and Sciences alum Lucy Coleman, who has been selected for the National Institutes of Health Oxford-Cambridge Scholars Program, an elite international doctoral training program!

Lucy, who earned a bachelor’s degree in biochemistry and a master’s degree in chemistry from The University of Oklahoma, said the opportunity fits with her long-term goal of developing new therapies for disease.

“This program allows me to combine experimental research and computational research in a way that prepares me for the future of drug discovery," she says.

Coleman said the opportunity to conduct independent research at OU played a critical role in preparing her for the rigor of the NIH Oxford-Cambridge Scholars Program, allowing her to lead projects, present findings, publish research, and develop as a scientist. Mentors in the Honors College and the Dodge Family College of Arts and Sciences, including Brian Johnson, Ph.D., director of student success in the Honors College, helped guide her through graduate opportunities and career decisions.

Congratulations, Lucy!
