Does IU do latin honors?

<p>I've been trying to find if they do latin honors (cum laude..etc) and I can't find any info on it, if so is it like every other university 3.6 is cum laude. 3.8 is magna cum laude, and the highest GPA(s) summa cum laude?</p>

<p>In the schedule of classes they list which courses are "honors" courses. I know that's not precisely what you are asking here--but it might be a start to see if there are honors courses offered in Latin. </p>

<p>P.S. Please note that Latin courses are listed under the "Classics" department. My son is planning on taking first-year (and maybe second-year) Latin also.</p>

<p>Ha, Ha, Ha</p>

<p>I hope you enjoyed my joke above. Now seriously, the only thing I know they do at Indiana is that you can get a "General Honors" designation put on your diploma if you take at least 21 units of honors courses prior to graduation.</p>

<p>I have no idea if they use the cum laude, magna cum laude, summa cum laude designations--or what levels are required to achieve them.</p>

<p>Yes, they do have traditional honors, but they don't have the latin terms:</p>

<p>Academic Distinction
Academic distinction for excellence in scholarship is awarded at Commencement to a limited number of students graduating in business with the Bachelor of Science degree. The number so honored will not exceed 10 percent of the graduating class in the school for that year. Graduates whose grade point averages are in the highest 1 percent and who complete at least 60 credits at Indiana University are graduated with ''highest distinction"; those whose grade point averages are in the next highest 4 percent and who complete at least 60 credits at Indiana University are graduated with ''high distinction"; and the remaining 5 percent who complete at least 60 credits at Indiana University are graduated with ''distinction.'' Graduates receiving these honors have them so noted on their diplomas and in the Commencement program and are eligible to wear the cream and crimson fourrag</p>

<p>Good goal, mssales. It's nice to know some students don't just want to "skate" through college.</p>

<p>Well I don't know if Indiana University does Honors Latin, but Darmouth does, you should go there instead.</p>
