Students selected to attempt honors will enroll in MS 191H SC: Honors Senior Thesis.

Spring projects will be supervised by two members of the Media Studies faculty or appropriate affiliated faculty members from the Claremont Colleges. MS 192H SC: Honors Senior Project will count toward the four electives required for the major. Dual Majors: Students combining Media Studies with a second major intending to complete a single senior thesis (or honors thesis/project) must integrate the skills and knowledge of both disciplines. The thesis (or honors project/thesis) must be cooperatively reviewed, read and graded by one faculty reader from each discipline; one of the two readers must be a Scripps faculty member.
