Description
VADIMIR NABOKOV, my favorite twentieth-century author, was the most self-reflexive of novelists: he would have been delighted with our present enterprise, a discussion in the Forum for Honors devoted to the subject of Forum for Honors. The questions we are attempting to address, although they tend toward the self-referential, are important. Our journal has grown, evolved, and developed into something different than the admirable publication begun by Vishnu Bhatia and ably continued under the direction of Scott Vaughn. It is timely to pause, examine what Forum has been and is today, and, most vitally, what it should aim to become in the future. In suggesting this task to me, the current Editor asked that I consider "what it is to write well about Honors education." This seemed to me a reasonable task, until I began to do it. At that moment I had two enfeebling thoughts. The first was that Bob's assignment carried the implicit assumption that one knew what it was to "write well" about ANYTHING, and yet to me at least, the definition of solid scholarship is anything but clear. My second enervating epiphany was that there could be no better way to appear foolish than to write poorly about "what it is to write well."
