2.00 Credits
This is a survey course in art history from pre-historic art through the 20th century. Students will be given individual assignments to be researched and will present to the class their findings. Some assignments will include visual supplementation while others will involve a “hands on” approach exploring the actual type of art work studied. Numerous field trips will be taken to see art work displayed in the area. A trip to Atlanta to the High Museum will be mandatory. Lecture/Lab Hours: Two hours per week.
-
4.00 Credits
This is a basic course in drawing, using shading to give a three-dimensional effect of volume on a two-dimensional ground. Illustrated demonstrations and critiques each week. Media: charcoal, pencil, pen and ink, and pastels. Lecture/Lab Hours: Six hours laboratory per week.
-
4.00 Credits
This is a basic design in two and three dimensions, including the underlying concepts of the design process related to a detailed examination of the perceptual characteristics of well-ordered two- and three-dimensional forms. Color theory will be explored as well as spatial concepts and manipulation of three-dimensional materials. Lecture/Lab Hours: Six hours laboratory per week.
-
4.00 Credits
This is experimental graphics and creative drawing in mixed media. Drawing vocabulary expanded to understand and illustrate complex ideas involving the human figure. Media: pen and ink wash, wood-relief, plexiglass intaglio, collage and encaustic. Lecture/Lab Hours: Six hours laboratory per week.
-
4.00 Credits
This is a study of the substance of painting—elements, their qualities, relations and functions—and of the operations and procedures involved in the construction of transparent and opaque paintings. Media: watercolor, opaque watercolor, and oil or acrylic paints. Lecture/Lab Hours: Six hours laboratory per week.

4.00 Credits
The course will cover astronomy from early ideas of the cosmos to modern observational techniques. The solar system planets, satellites, and minor bodies, plus the origin and evolution of the solar system also will be covered. Lecture/Lab Hours: Three hours lecture and two hours laboratory per week.
-
4.00 Credits
This course will cover the study of the sun and stars, their physical properties and evolution, interstellar matter, star clusters, our galaxy and other galaxies, and the origin and evolution of the Universe. Lecture/Lab Hours: Three hours lecture and two hours laboratory per week.

4.00 Credits
This non-majors’ honors course, the first in a lab sequence, is designed to develop an appreciation for the biological sciences and to strengthen understanding of scientific method and experimental design through applied thinking. An appreciation of biological concepts and literacy also will be attained. The course will concentrate on the cellular and molecular levels of biology and will include topics such as an introduction to biological chemistry, cell biology, genetics, and evolutionary mechanism. Students will participate in an honors laboratory section where they will conduct an in-depth study of the methods of scientific investigation. Students will be required to submit projects related to lecture subjects. Notes: Students cannot receive graduation credit for both BIOL 1001 and BIOL 2107 or for both BIOL 1002 and BIOL 2108. Lecture/Lab Hours: Three hours lecture and two hours laboratory per week.

4.00 Credits
This non-majors’ honors course, the second in a lab sequence, is designed to increase an appreciation for the basic concepts of biology, including an understanding of the scientific method and experimental design. To achieve the goal, the subject areas of organismal diversity and organismal anatomy and physiology will be investigated. Organ systems to be covered will include the digestive system, respiratory system, immune system, cardiovascular system, excretory system, endocrine system, and reproductive system. Students will participate in an honors laboratory section where they will conduct an in-depth study of the methods of scientific investigation. Students will be required to submit projects related to lecture subjects. Notes: Students cannot receive graduation credit for both BIOL 1001 and BIOL 2107 or for both BIOL 1002 and BIOL 2108. Lecture/Lab Hours: Three hours lecture and two hours laboratory per week.

3.00 Credits
This non-major’s course is designed to enable students to fulfill the Area D elective requirement with a science course. Topics will vary with the instructor but will consistently be designed to continue the development of an appreciation for basic biological concepts including the scientific method and experimental design. Currently, the course is designed to focus on the science of the study of insects (Entomology) in which the areas of insect life styles, ecological roles, diversity and relations to other organisms will be investigated. Through- out the course, the effects of insects on people, society, and history will be related. Lecture/Lab Hours: Three hours per week.
