RATIONALE: The archaeological studies major, previously administered through the anthropology department and through which a classical archaeology concentration was offered, was discontinued effective Fall 2004. However, student demand for a classical archaeology major still exists, and faculty in both the classics and the anthropology departments agree that students would be best served by creating a classical archaeology major within the classics department.
