ABOUT THE
PROGRAM:
 
The William O. Douglas Honors College (DHC) is Central's interdisciplinary program for academically talented students. The program is divided into two parts: a core curriculum and an upper-division scholarship experience. The core curriculum is composed of a series of courses that emphasize how the arts, humanities, sciences, and social sciences converge in considering historically important questions. Lectures are supplemented by colloquia, and courses draw heavily from the great works of world literature. The upper-division scholarship experience involves additional, advanced courses and a culminating research project in either the arts and humanities or in the sciences. DHC also sponsors cultural field trips, guest lectures, and a number of other extracurricular activities.
