Side tangent: HONORS IH COURSES SHOULD HAVE AN ONLINE COURSEEEEE

Hey yall. Pretty much the title, I am an honors student here at temple and I just hate that IH courses don't have online courses with the exact same professors who offer online IH courses for regular IH but there isn't any for honors... is there anyway I could just do regular instead of honors because it just isn't realistic for me to fit it into my schedule?

from what i’ve heard, other honors ih profs make you write hella long ass papers, he only made us write one paper and mine was 5 pages. it’s been a few years since i took his class but from what i remember, you have assigned readings and class time is spent yapping about it. be prepared to talk because participation is pretty much mandatory. but it’s by no means a hard class overall.

if you're an honors student, i'm pretty sure it's required that you take honors IH and im not sure why they don't offer that, maybe to increase in-person discussion?

I know... sigh I just wishes they had some online options because it literally cannot fit the schedule I have right now.
