Foreign Languages Across the Curriculum is a tutorial program which seeks to enable students with at least intermediate-level proficiency in a foreign language to access authentic materials in that language that are relevant to a cognate course. Students will use their acquired skills to read and interpret texts in the foreign language and/or conduct research in the language. Knowledge gained will be applied to the work of the cognate course. Amount of credit established at time of registration. May be taken again with a different cognate course. Prerequisite: LAT 30 or equivalent and signature of language instructor. Corequisite: Concurrent registration in a cognate course.

The discipline of linguistics is concerned with language in all of the different ways it functions. When the material and approaches of any academic field are applied to language, that application is within the purview of linguistics. This course will expose students to some of the many areas in which language can be the topic, chosen from the following: philosophy, sociology, neurophysiology, cognitive and developmental psychology, foreign languages, evolutionary and cultural anthropology. It will draw on the expertise of professors from a variety of departments, each 'visiting scholar,' so to speak, presenting material from his or her own field as it intersects with the study of language. Offering to be determined.

The mathematical prerequisites for the study of calculus: functions and their graphs, polynomials, trigonometry, logarithms, and exponential functions, and analytic geometry. Meets: weekly for 150 minutes of lecture and a 50-minute recitation. Prerequisite: Departmental approval based on placement exam score. Offered spring semester.

2.00 Credits
This course is designed to augment and expand upon the basic statistics course, Math 3. Topics from this introductory course, or others of interest to the students, will be pursued in depth. The course will be run to a large extent in an independent study, self-discovery mode with minimal formal lecturing. Students will work in teams analyzing real data to develop an understanding of the strengths and weaknesses of the different methods. A side goal of the course will be to hone skills in writing and speaking about scientific studies. The course would be especially appropriate for quantitatively-oriented students, with aptitude for mathematics and computing, who plan to pursue graduate work in the biological, social, mathematical, or physical sciences. Prerequisite: MATH 3 or permission of instructor. Offered fall semester.
