Result Implemented
Remarks IMPLEMENTED
Whereas Currently Biology 2457 and 2458 are sophomore level b courses that do not count toward a Biology degree; and
Whereas Many students would take these classes if they counted toward upper level Biology electives, as they are important to future tests such as MCAT and DAT; and
Whereas Many other universities are changing their anatomy courses to junior level, such as UT Dallas; and
Whereas This issue has been raised repeatedly in the past; and
Whereas The course curriculum will not be altered by this change.
Be It Further Resolved That Biology 2457 and 2458 (Anatomy and Physiology I and II) be raised to junior level standing so that students may take these courses for credit toward graduation.
