The spring semester of the year-long Honors capstone course is devoted to carrying out and writing up the research projects that students designed in the fall. Students will both complete their own independent research projects and provide comments and suggestions on each other's work at weekly class meetings. The majority of the semester will be devoted to data collection as well as the analysis and interpretation of research findings. Students will prepare the final reports associated with their thesis research, in the form of an archivable Honors Thesis. The full Thesis will consist of sections written in the fall (literature review, methods) as well as the new sections written in the spring (results, discussion).
