Welcome to the Louisiana Scholars’ College!
Scholars’ offers low student to teacher ratio and liberal arts style teaching: strong mentoring by faculty, courses that welcome an exchange of ideas and viewpoints, and a commitment to helping students succeed. Scholars’ courses are open to any NSU student and can add an extra dimension to their curriculum that can really set the individual student’s academic work apart.
The core curriculum of the state’s designated honors college combines great books-based courses with courses in mathematics and sciences to provide a strong foundation for more focused study in one of its concentrations or in a traditional major offered at Northwestern State. Scholars’ courses are open to any Northwestern student and can add an extra dimension to any curriculum that can set your academic work apart from others.

From Scholars' alum, Marissa Sonnier:
Attention Facebook friends! I am looking for high quality children's books (think Dr. Seuss, Eric Carle, Maurice Sendak, Pete the Cat, etc.) for my kindergarten classroom library! If anyone has books that they are willing to donate, please let me know. I want to be able to facilitate a reading rich environment for the kiddos, but am currently broke. Anything is appreciated! Thanks!
If you have donations, contact Mcclaind@nsula.edu, and I will put you in touch with Marissa. She is in the Alexandria area..
From Scholars' alum, Austin McCann:
Last year I saw a problem in the City of New Orleans, and across the entire world where homeless people didn't have anything to put on their feet. I started doing research and learned socks are the #1 need for the homeless community. There Open Thread was born. I took my love for the homeless community, passion for designer socks, and created this company. For every designer sock purchased a pair of long thick socks will be donated to homeless shelters throughout the cities of New Orleans, Atlanta, Los Angeles, New York, and San Francisco. Socks will be available to purchase starting December 2017.
A message from Kirsten Bartels, Director of the Scholars' College:
Greetings from Scholars’
I hope everyone is enjoying their summer! Lots of new and exciting things are happening around Morrison Hall, and we are looking forward to welcoming you or welcoming you back in August!
One change I would like to make will hopefully make communication smoother. I would like all of us to utilize Remind. It is an application that you can select how you will receive notifications (text or email). I will be using it in both my Sci Sem course and the Orientation course. I would also like everyone to join their appropriate class site – that way you know you are getting all the information from my office that you could possibly want and need.
The links are located below.
Please spread the word. As an extra incentive, I will buy pizza for the first 25 people that sign up and the first class to have 100% participation.
Thanks!
Kirsten
