(3 credits) Note
that students must take breadth courses from four different subject areas
(e.g. the four- letter subject code ACCT, HIST, etc.). Students may not use a
course that is cross-listed with a subject area that has already been used to
satisfy a university breadth requirement. Students enrolled in a single major
may not satisfy the breadth requirement with courses in the subject area of
that major (e.g. chemistry majors may not use CHEM courses). Students who are
enrolled in more than one major or degree are allowed to meet the University
breadth requirement by taking approved breadth courses from within the
subject areas of their majors. The requirement may be fulfilled through a
course or courses taken to complete other degree requirements, subject to the
limitations above. COLLEGE REQUIREMENTS Writing: (minimum grade C-) 3 A second writing course
