Adding courses....

According to some of my sociology friends, the department may be requiring all majors to take a certain writing class in order to graduate, even though this class was not in their original bulletin. According to the Academic Advising Office, students are only required to take the courses for their majors as outlined in the bulletin they received during their orientation. This being said, the sociology department would be breaking the rules by requiring this writing class. According to junior Rosana Godinez, sociology major, the whole thing is "ridiculous". 

 

I agree. The school clearly states that in order to graduate in your chosen major, you are required to meet the fulfill the requirements set out in you bulletin. Many students are double majors or just have a lot of things going on. Schedules are an exact science. Adding a requirement as a junior or senior could cause some students to graduate late. The whole thing is, well, ridiculous.
