The Barrett curriculum
The Barrett curriculum is designed to develop habits of mind that enable people to be lifelong learners, creative problem solvers and participatory citizens in a democratic society. The Honors College appoints faculty members who are responsible for teaching the core honors classes – The Human Event, upper-division honors-only seminars, and Center for Professional Development courses – and collaborates with all disciplines to offer honors sections, honors enrichment contracts, research and community outreach opportunities and honors thesis pathways.
