Creating Concentrations

Here’s a bold claim: I don’t think that the degree audit that the Agnes Scott College registrar provides doesn’t accurately describe a student’s journey. It pulls courses out of a program of study to fulfil distributional requirements, only counts a certain number of electives, and only allows two courses to count in multiple programs. I’m setting out, in this post, to create a more comprehensive view of my four programs of study: a major in Public Health and minors in Biology, Psychology, and “Women’s, Gender, and Sexuality Studies” (which, as this post is being written, is being approved as the now-department’s new name)
