Honors Students,

  • Worrying how you’ll ever come up with a “good” paper?

Lydia will cover:

  • Formal and informal expectation for Honors 200 papers
  • Brief review of the Honors College Writing Guidelines
  • What current 200-level instructors have said about students’ first papers in the past
  • How the expectations for papers differ across disciplines
  • Why the trusty 5-paragraph theme won’t work any more

You will also get a chance to look at excerpts from actual student papers to see what works, and get the inside scoop on individual professors’ pet peeves!
