Who evaluates my honors project for Honors in Independent Study?
An examining committee–made up of the faculty advisor for the project and at least two other faculty members–evaluates the results of each project, conducts an oral examination of the honors candidate, and decides what level of honors is appropriate in view of the strength and weaknesses of both the thesis and the oral defense. The Committee on Honors reviews the reports of all examining committees and submits its recommendations for Honors in Independent Study to the faculty for final approval.
