II.  Relationship to mission and strategic plan of institution, and/or College/Department goals and objectives
Maintain and provide accurate information for students
III.  Rationale
HISTRY 315 and HISTRY 325 are no longer offered and have been deleted from the History Department course offerings in the catalog.  HISTRY 313 AND HISTRY 314 were approved in Spring 2001 to replace HISTRY 315.  These two new courses cover the same subject matter as HISTRY 315 in a more comprehensive way.  Therefore this change will not affect the content of the major; it is simply a "bookkeeping" correction.
IV.  Cost implications  N\A.
