Westminster College Recognizes Honors Program Students

Posted on Wednesday, April 23, 2008

Sixteen Westminster College seniors who have completed the College Honors Program were recognized at the annual Honors Convocation April 19.

The Westminster Honors Program provides an opportunity for students to pursue projects beyond the regular course work. A minimum grade point average (GPA) of 3.5 or better for all courses taken and in the major is required for admission into the program. The research process culminates in an Honors thesis or project, which, when successfully completed and defended, entitles the student to have "College Honors in [name of major or discipline(s)]" inscribed on the diploma.
