Effective Date: Fall 2008

   1.      Delete:  On page 247, the course description for WMST 400:

Add:       On page 247, in place of deleted entry:

Advanced readings in Women’s Studies focusing on topics of current interest and debate. Readings will emphasize the interdisciplinary nature of Women’s Studies, and students will complete a service or research project culminating in a written paper and oral presentation. Prerequisite: completion of 12 hours applicable to Women’s Studies major or minor. Spring.

Impact: This should cause no impact, for students are already doing what is described above.

Rationale: The change more accurately reflects the course content.
