II. Justification for action This change will make this course accessible to new freshmen, helping to accommodate students electing not to take 900-150 for their three credit science course under the proposed general education revisions. Some sections will be reserved for BSE students satisfying their conservation requirement, and tailored to their backgrounds and needs. Other sections will be open for all students to satisfy their GM requirement.
