Does participation in the Scholars Program create a tight knit community?

@javamom – I believe there were discussions about honors vs. scholars in the Ohio State College Confidential forum last year and/or the year before - you may be able to find it via search. During our OSU tour, we spoke to 3 students who were in honors. All 3 of them felt that the big benefit of honors is priority registration. I believe registration is set up (first to last) as: honors seniors, honors juniors, honors sophomores, honors freshmen, scholars seniors, seniors, scholars juniors, juniors, etc. None of the 3 felt that honors provided a social community. At least 1 said that honors classes are more difficult with a lot more work.
