Honor Definitions
Important
Information and features vary according to the roles to which you belong and the permissions associated with those roles. For more information, contact your module manager or your campus support team.
Honors and awards can be associated with students and employees, and displayed in several places throughout J1 Web, including the Program tab on the Student Information Details page and the Achievements section of the Employee Profile. Students see Honors information in their Campus Portal on their Student Academic Information page. The Honor Definitions page is where you create the honor codes that will be available for users to choose from when they are editing records.
Like many data items in J1, Honor definitions consist of a code (an abbreviation used throughout the system), a description, (clarifies what this code is used for), and a type. Honor definitions have two types: Academic, and Other. An example of an Academic Type might be cum laude or summa cum laude. An example of an Other type could be Dean's List or similar.
Honors can be edited on the Student Information Details page, Program tab. Academic Honors will display in the drop-down menus for Degree Honors 1, 2, and 3. Other Honors will display in the drop-down menus for Other Honors 1, 2, and 3.
