Information about HNRS 261!
We will not be able to offer an additional section of HNRS 261 in Winter quarter. We are working to offer 2 sections in Spring 22. See Module 4.1 of the Honors Program Handbook on Canvas to learn about other ways you can satisfy this requirement.
One way is to take the Emerging Leaders Series through the Center for Leadership. The dates for Winter Quarter have not been finalized but will be released by the end of Fall Quarter. For more updates from the Center for Leadership, sign up to join their newsletter. If you participate, please fill out the Substitution Request for HNRS 261.
