Moreau Honors students will complete a minimum of five Honors courses plus the HON 100 - Honors Leadership Seminar and a Senior Honors Experience:
- In the first semester, they will take at least two Honors courses (GENH 140 , GENL 140 , GENP 140 or GENR 140 )
- In the second semester, they will take the HON 100 - Honors Leadership Seminar and are required to take initiatives to effect positive changes in the community. These projects include doing volunteer work, inviting speakers to the College, organizing series of faculty lectures, helping to coordinate visits by noteworthy guests, planning entertainment and cultural events, and bringing about changes in College policies on environmental issues.
- Before graduating, they will need to take three additional Honors courses. One and only one of those courses can be a non-Honors course for Honors Program credit. Contact the Honors Program Director for more information.)
- In the senior year, the students will need to take the Senior Honors Experience, composed of a Senior capstone in the major. (For Education majors, the Capstone has to be in the non-Education major.)
Students accepted into the Moreau Honors program starting their sophomore year have to take three Honors courses, plus the Senior Honors Experience. One and only one of those courses can be a non-honors course for Honors Program credit.
Moreau Honors students must have a 3.50 cumulative grade-point-average (GPA) and a 3.40 in Honors courses to graduate with a Moreau Honors Program designation.
The Honors grade-point-average (GPA) is determined using only the four highest grades earned in Honors courses (the lowest grade is dropped) and the grade of the Senior Honors Experience.
