Mr. Helms' favorite dinosaurs in ɫɫ��’s Dino Park are the Utahraptors. According to Mr. Helms, “Raptors, just like us in the honors college, are all about community. While theirs is focused on wreaking bloodthirsty carnage on the world, ours is committed to supporting some of ɫɫ��’s most driven students to achieve their goals and graduate prepared to make an impact in their field and on the world. So, we are a lot alike.”
