Dominican Honors Program: Mazzuchelli Scholars and Degree with Distinction Programs

Socrates challenges us with the claim that the unexamined life is not worth living. Fr. Samuel Mazzuchelli O.P. challenges us to “wake up then … and set out for any place where the need is great, and the work is difficult.” The Mazzuchelli Scholars honors program contributes to the mission of the university by providing talented and self-motivated students with the opportunities and skills they will need to become lifelong learners.

Students who accept this challenge are awarded their degrees with honors (Bachelor of Arts with Honors or Bachelor of Science with Honors), on the recommendation of the Honors Program.
