Important Note for Majors! Department of History Revises its Curriculum

Recently, the department of history proposed a series of wide-ranging changes to its undergraduate curriculum. Last week, the university approved those changes. We had two purposes in mind: one was to introduce World History into the lower division curriculum; the other was to reduce the size of the major, which is now 36 credits instead of 45. (the History/Secondary Education major remains virtually as it was). The changes will be present in next year's catalog. Keep in mind that you can choose which catalog they use to graduate, so get together with an advisor to see how the changes could affect you.
