THE UNDERGRADUATE CATALOG, 2000-2002
| On page 67, in the section ACADEMIC POLICIES
AND PROCEDURES, make the following changes: |
COMMUNICATION AND SOCIETY CONCENTRATION
This concentration is designed for consumers and creators of messages
in public contexts. It is open only to students in majors outside the
College of Communication; any noncommunication student may enroll in
any of these courses for which he or she meets the prerequisite. In
addition to fulfilling the prerequisite, the student must have a University
grade point average of at least 2.25 to enroll in any upper-division
course in the College of Communication.
The communication and society concentration requires eighteen semester
hours of coursework, consisting of two required courses and twelve hours
of electives; nine hours of the elective work must be in upper-division
courses. Of the eighteen semester hours required for the concentration,
at least twelve must be completed in residence. At any time after enrolling
in his or her last concentration course, the student should fill out
a concentration completion form in the Office of Student Affairs. The
form must be submitted by the deadline to apply for graduation in the
student¡s final semester. Students who complete the concentration will
receive verification.
A student who wishes to use the concentration to fulfill minor requirements
should make certain these courses meet the requirements of his or her
college.
