What makes an honors course different from other college courses?
This varies a bit with different courses and professors, but in general honors courses are reading intensive (with a preference for primary-source material), writing intensive, interdisciplinary, collaborative (most are small seminars), and present opportunities for independent research. All are designed specifically to take students who want to be challenged and push them to new levels, in fascinating areas of inquiry.
