[00:00.00]Student: Hi, uh… Professor Anderson… wondering if you had a couple minutes… 
[00:09.61]Professor: Of course, Paula…
[00:10.81]Student: Thanks… uh, you sent me a letter recently about doing, uh, an honors project-inviting me to come in and talk about…
[00:19.59]Professor: Right, right, well, as your academic advisor, it's my job to look out for your academic interests, and based on your grades, and some very positive feedback I've heard from your professors, I wanted to formally invite you to consider doing an honors project…
[00:35.37]Student: Yeah… well, thanks…uh, actually I kinda wanted to ask you…quite frankly-like how much work it would probably be? [00:45.45]I mean, I'm gonna be spending a lot of time applying to law schools next semester and…
[00:50.57]Professor: Well, let me tell you how it works…and then you can decide from there.
[00:54.39]Student: OK
[00:55.27]Professor: Basically, the honors project is an opportunity to do…some in-depth work on a topic you're interested in before graduating college. [01:04.26]You register for the class, but it doesn't work the same way a regular class does. [01:09.22]You find a professor who you want to work with; you ask the professor-a sort of mentor who's knowledgeable on the topic you're interested in-the topic you're gonna write your honors thesis on…
[01:22.29]Student: Writing a thesis? [01:23.80]That's part of the project? [01:25.47]Ah, like how many pages are we talking?
[01:29.13]Professor: Usually about 50… but it's a valuable experience, writing a thesis paper.
[01:34.62]Student: So, basically, after I register for the class, I need to ask a professor who'll sort of help me…
[01:40.44]Professor: Actually, you need to do that-a professor needs to agree to oversee your honors project-before you register.
[01:47.02]Student: Oh, OK…
[01:48.23]Professor: I mean, I know it sounds kinda daunting, but that's what the professor's there for-to help guide you through the different steps of the process and…uh…most students are very pleased with the experience. [01:59.77]They're able to demonstrate advanced research skills, which is important; especially in your case, writing an honors thesis would be a big plus ...
[02:09.65]Student: You think so?
[02:10.56]Professor: Absolutely. Especially considering your plans, since you're applying to law schools. [02:15.68]It shows initiative that you've done well as an undergraduate, to be allowed to do the honors project…that you're able to work independently and, of course, you would graduate with honors…
[02:27.17]Student: Yeah, it does sound good. [02:29.63]It's just, you know, l've never written something like that before, so…
[02:33.97]Professor: Well, you choose something you're interested in. [02:36.32]Maybe you can even expand a shorter research paper from another class or…
[02:41.59]Student: So, like, maybe…You know, I took this course from Professor Connelly, his course on Comparative Governments last semester and, uh…did pretty well-l wrote a paper actually, on political parties in Venezuela and-he seemed to like my research. [02:57.37]Anyway, he, uh, I got an A in the course.
[03:00.77]Professor: Good, so it sounds like you do have a general idea for a topic, and you might know what professor you want to work with. [03:07.35]And look, it's still a couple weeks before registration, maybe you should talk to Professor Connelly and then get back to me.
[03:14.27]Student: Yeah, I will-thanks. [03:16.15]I'II come by again sometime next week.
[03:18.14]Professor: That's fine. Good luck.
