Is the Honors Option graded?
Possibly, but not necessarily. Professors can choose one of two ways to account for the Honors Option work. First, the Honors Option assignment may be counted as supplemental to the work described in the course syllabus, and satisfactory completion of the assignment will met the honors requirement. In this case, the assignment does not need to be graded. Second, the Honors Option assignment may be an enhanced version of an existing assignment, thus effecting an amendment of the existing course syllabus. In this case, the work can be graded as part of the course material.
