The UW Honors program is excellent. It is a way to get more intense classes in a subject. I was an early '70’s honors student and found many of the same course numbers still exist, with updated content of course. I checked when son was there. There is no segregation of honors students at UW- they are too diverse. In fact, my fellow honors chemistry friends and I liked to live in different parts of campus. It was so much nicer to choose one’s dorm than to be put with all honors or be required to take silly honors survey courses instead of in depth study of material. You do it for YOU. Can easily opt in and out of courses, just need to meet requirements to get the honors (of one type or another- comprehensive to just in the major) degree.

You will want to compare what is offered/required for honors at each school. Some schools have honors colleges with separate dorms and required classes, but only the first two years.
