LSU Honors College - what is it and what does it do for you?

Do you still major in whatever you want but you take harder classes in that curriculum?
How much better is an honors degree, or do you get a regular degree with an honors award?

You're still graduating from LSU at the end, so I don't see the point.

No, they'll give you an aptitude test and assign you a major in accordance with what fits you best.

It's pointless besides the fact you get to graduate with the honors chord.
Just a waste of time really unless you want to only have classes with people on your level intellectually

take 20 hrs of honors classes, and you can get sophomore honors distinction, and extra tassel to wear at graduation....

You end up being better prepared for life because you will learn a lot more stuff through the Honors College.

Same degrees, you just take some honors classes.
as in.. a Biology Major in Honors college is a still a Biology Major, he just took some honors biology classes and chem classes (exact same classes as normal ones but with diff teachers, diff syllabus, and diff students)
I think you also have to write a dissertation before you graduate

Oh yeah, if you really want to you can piss in the sink instead of having to walk down the hall to take a piss.

Ok gotcha, thanks

Only reason people do it is to stay in East laville.

I was in Honors college for like the first year or maybe 3 semesters if I recall. I had actually completely forgot I was in honors college until this thread reminded me that it existed. So yea, didnt do much for me.

If you are dedicated to academics then why not?
I wish i did more shite like this in undergrad, unfortunately i wasn't too involved
