Enchiridion Honorum: The ACES Honors Handbook

Dean Banwart commissioned Rob Chappell to produce the first edition of Enchiridion Honorum: The ACES Honors Handbook in summer 2004. It was designed to provide readers with an authoritative roadmap through the ACES James Scholar process from start to finish. This is the authoritative version of the text, to which Dean Simmons granted official approval on 2007-Jul-26.

The 2007 edition of Enchiridion Honorum is effective August 16, 2007 through August 15, 2008. It contains revisions and expansions of material found in previous editions, along with completely new information that will assist ACES James Scholars in their ongoing quest for academic excellence.

Comments, questions, and suggestions pertaining to Enchiridion Honorum may be directed to its compositor, Rob Chappell.

Please note that other Colleges at the University of Illinois have James Scholar Programs of their own and that their policies and procedures may differ significantly from those outlined in Enchiridion Honorum: The ACES Honors Handbook. James Scholars must follow the guidelines and regulations of the College in which they are currently enrolled, and questions about policies and procedures should be directed to the administrators of the appropriate College's Honors Program.

CAUTION: Please don't rely on hearsay or speculation to resolve James-Scholarly conundra. Be sure to consult authoritative sources of information to prevent surprises and disappointments from happening to you! Remember that the only stupid question is the question that is never asked. You may contact the official representatives of ACES James Scholardom through the Honors Program Directory Page on this website.

Hammurabi was the compiler of the famous legal code that bears his name, which set the standard for jurisprudence throughout the ancient Near East. It contained 282 laws engraved in cuneiform writing on twelve tablets. (Photo Credit: Public Domain via Wikimedia Commons)
