Departmental Honors Program To graduate with honors in comparative literature, the student must complete a thesis, which will be evaluated by a director and a second reader. Students will receive 3 credits each term for independent work on the thesis. A grade of B+ or better is required. To qualify, majors must have a cumulative grade-point average of 3.0 or better, and a grade-point average of 3.5 or better in the major at the end of the junior year. They must have their topic approved as adequate for an honors thesis by their chosen thesis director and the Undergraduate Director. Such approval is usually required by the end of the spring term of the junior and in no case later than the end of the add-drop period of the first term of the senior year |
