Honors Contracts for IU Indianapolis Honors College
Honors Contracts are a huge part of being an Honors student at IUI. Each semester, we need an Honors class or an Honors contract to satisfy our Honors credits for the semester. Contracts give me the opportunity to dig deeper into the course material and truly understand what the professor is trying to get us to take away from the course.
