“I never thought I would be going to graduate school,” said Honeycutt to Colby Magazine. “(Dr. Glenn) taught me that you can be a woman and succeed in science. She taught me that you can have a lot of different interests and be successful in science. She’s really shaped my college experience as well as my career.”
