Honors class feedback initially from the council is that honors offers a step between ALPS and honors and regular. Committee feedback is that honors is a good option, but the class should actually be different. They suggested we focus on all honors classes more on writing over the number of books being read.
Question about why our honor roll threshold is higher than in most places. 3.667 is an A- average. 3.5 is between a B+ and A- average.
Meeting adjourned at 5:45 PM.
