Additional Comments

We are submitting this revision to change the number only

(from 350 to 250). THis is based on the results of our external

review and on internal student surveys that suggest that

students take this course earlier in their experience of the

major. Furthermore, a PWAD committee has worked to

standardize some of the content, pushing it toward a more

introductory approach.
