Honors Contracts are another type of honors teaching experience. In this class, the professor and the honors scholar student make a contract (similar to a DIS proposal) to add honors level experience(s) to an ongoing course, so that the student does "honors level work" in the class (but only that student does the work and receives the honors credit). This may mean that the student engages in additional reading- such as primary sources- with additional or different types of papers for the class. For example, the student might add a critique/analysis to a general class paper. Or the student may learn a particular section of material well enough to make a special presentation to the class. The student must earn at least a B (3.0) to receive honors level credit for the course (designated as such on the transcript). 300 or 400 level classes in the student's major or minor are eligible for honors level contracts. This can be a very unique learning experience to explore a particular content area in depth.
