It is not mandatory, but you have the option of taking LER 496 during the fall and/or spring semesters of your final undergraduate year to give you time to work on your thesis. Once LER 496 is listed on your schedule, just complete an online request to “honors option” it; SHC then accepts it as 496H. Please note that you cannot register for LER 496 via LionPath. There is a form you must complete that you can get from Sheila Lieb at our reception desk on the fifth floor of the Keller building or from our Academic Adviser Katelyn Perry. You may take LER 496 twice, but not during the same semester.
