Academics

The Spring 2019 edition of Sabiduría, Palm Beach State College’s Dr. Floyd F. Koch Honors College Academic Journal, is now included in the online catalog of the Library of Congress.

The peer-reviewed, interdisciplinary journal highlights the research work of Honors College students. Before being accepted, the College had to complete an application this year which required Library of Congress staff to review the issue and description of the publication characteristics.

Twenty manuscripts submitted for consideration in the 2019 edition went through a rigorous screening process by an editorial team of nine honors students to ensure the best that Palm Beach State has to offer was included. Ten were selected for the publication.

“Palm Beach State is one of the few state colleges in Florida that offer students in the Honors College the opportunity to be published,” said Honors College Manager Marcella Montesinos.  “It not only allows them to share their research and creativity with others, it gives them an impressive credential on scholarship applications and academic resumes.”

Sabiduría was first published at the College in 2009. The faculty advisor for the publication is Associate Professor Robin Fiedler. The Palm Beach Gardens campus has copies of the publication available in their periodicals section.
