Class Registration Spring class registration begins November 7th. Be sure to register for an Honors course this coming semester. The following Honors courses will be available:  COMT (Honors) 161 Intercultural Communication: Examines communicative encounters among people of different cultural, ethnic, and minority groups.  Honors 290 Honors Internship (variable credit): We are in the process of making arrangements for a communal internship, the results of which I hope to announce in a day or two.  WRIT 201 Research Writing: Arrangements are still being made for this special section as well, but look for the one that says permission of the instructor. In this case, the permission giver will be me.  Honors 292/492 Honors Seminar (Working Selves, Working Lives): Examines the role work plays in American culture and in many Americans' lives. It will also investigate the so called second shift (i.e. the way in which married couples distribute work done in the home) and the ways work may change in the future.
