To graduate with Latin honors is a remarkable achievement, one that sets our students apart from more than ninety percent of their fellow graduates. The degree designation they have earned signifies their capacity to perform at the highest academic level, rewards the time and energy they have invested in producing and defending an honors thesis, and recognizes their ability to define and create an original piece of scholarly or creative work. Above all, it bespeaks their participation in the most distinguished traditions of the academy. It marks them as a member of the ancient and honorable community that humanist scholars called res publica litterarum, the republic of letters.
Our honors students pour their enthusiasm for learning into every class; by example, they have encouraged others to strive for the excellence they have attained. We trust that the energy and creativity that have defined our Honors students' academic career thus far will remain with them for the rest of their lives. If they do, we will all be their beneficiaries.
