Topics in Science

A series of courses designed to fulfill the Liberal Arts laboratory science requirement. Each 100-level class focuses on one main theme or issue which is of immediate relevancy to students in today’s society. In order to understand these topics so that informed decisions can be made, students will learn necessary scientific principles, facts, and processes. By studying how knowledge about the subject has been developed students will learn to appreciate the strengths and weaknesses of the scientific approach. Social implications of scientific findings will be considered for the issues addressed. Class size limited to thirty students. Each 100-level class runs for half of a semester and carries two academic credits (three hours classroom, two hours laboratory).

Spanish

Placement: If a student has had more experience with the Spanish language than what is considered typical for the course (including native speakers and heritage speakers, e.g., individuals who have grown up speaking a language other than or in addition to English), that student will be required to meet with the Program Coordinator for a language assessment in order to determine the appropriate level of course for that student. The assessment consists of a verbal interview in which progressively more advanced linguistic structures are used. If a student does well in this interview, he or she may be asked to write a short essay in order to determine his/her writing level. This method is consistent with the American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages (ACTFL). No student may remain in a course for which the faculty member deems him/her to be too advanced based on the previously explained procedure.
