Honors Seminar

LAW 369

The Honors Seminar is a limited-enrollment course (maximum of 15 students) which requires a cumulative 3.0 GPA for entry. The seminar focuses on a particular topic, with individual sessions taught by various faculty members under the direction of a faculty coordinator. When the focus is on law and literature, the course explores the relationship between them, considering themes of law and justice as they have been portrayed in literary works and comparing legal and literary approaches to legal theory and practice and to the resolution of social and individual disputes through legal systems. Students are required to participate in class discussion and submit a paper on a subject within the parameters of the particular seminar's focus.
