Double majors and minors allowed students an EXPA DED RRICU U Bob Senkewicz, S.J., said that the double major program offered business and engineer- ing students the chance to experience liberal arts classes and gave humanities stu- dents a chance to en- roll in more technical courses. Nancy Ed- dinger, a junior mar- keting major, com- mented, A minor in history has made my studies much more in- terestingf' Any student could have a double major in any two departments of Engineering, and Arts and Sciences, or any department in Arts and Sciences combined with any department in Business or Engi- neering. And only in the Biology Depart- ment were academic minors denied. Although the minor program was consid- ered permanent, the major, students were forced to give up elec- tives in order to meet graduation require- ments. Janie Carmena, junior economics major, commented, I tried to get a second major in education, but found that I would have to use up all of my elec- tives in order to gra- duate on time. After the trial period, the University was to decide how many elec- tives could be used to- ward a double major and if the required to- tal units to graduate with a double major should be increased. Despite the questions raised in the first year of the new program, many students were excited to have an op- tion for a second de- gree, and many took advantage of the op- portunities an extra majorfminor offered. by Lisa Varni Expanded Curriculum

'n.l'.l Double majors within the Business School were eliminated because they violated accrediation rules. Business majors still ask their dean, Andre Delbecq, Ph.D., for advice on a double major combining business and humanities, sciences or engineering.
