 The Flory Fellowship of Scholars is for students...
...with outstanding academic records who find excitement and stimulation in the learning process.
...who want to develop the skills for independent inquiry and research necessary for excelling in graduate and professional schools.
...who crave the opportunity to be creative and to develop the capacity to meet new challenges.
...who want to push the boundaries of knowledge and explore uncharted intellectual territory.
...who want to be part of a social and academic community of motivated learners.
This Honors Program is designed to provide additional challenges and opportunities to outstanding students. Many of the Honors courses are honors versions of existing courses and satisfy general education requirements. They are taught as smaller classes and provide opportunities for different types of student learning and faculty teaching -- greater independence, research and discussion formats. Other Honors courses will be new, created for students in the Honors Program.
A 3.4 or higher grade point average is required to be a member of the Honors Program. First-year students who present promising high school records and transfer students with a high grade point average in college courses will be invited into the Honors Program. Students may also be nominated for the Program by a faculty member or may nominate themselves.
To complete the requirements of the Honors Program a student is required to complete a minimum of six honors courses plus an honors capstone seminar. Students who complete all requirements of the Program will receive special recognition at Commencement and Honors Program Graduate will be imprinted on their transcript and on their diploma. |
