The Council was unclear precisely what the
honors component would be, and
so Michael will consult with Mary Stange

The Council will need to consider these proposals
in the context of other
disciplinary-based capstone experiences.
Michael will consult with Sheldon
Solomon, Chair of Psychology.
3. BI275 (1cr.) - Introduction to Biology
Research -
The Council will need to consider this
proposal in the context of other
