Earning Honors in the Major
In order to earn honors at graduation in a major in Religion, students must meet two criteria:
- Have one of the top two GPA averages in all of their coursework in the Religion Department.
- Excel in the Senior Seminar.
Please note, it is possible to earn honors without doing a SIP in Religion, as long as the student meets the two criteria above.
Earning Honors in the SIP (Senior Integrated Project)
When the Senior Integrated Project is completed in the Department of Religion, any SIP may be submitted to the faculty of the department as a whole for consideration. Two or more faculty members must agree if a given SIP is worthy of honors for honors to be awarded. Students will be notified by their SIP advisors soon after the deadline for SIP grades in Winter Quarter of their grade on their SIP.
