FYS 100 - First Year Seminar (4 Cr.)

(formerly FRO 100)
First year seminars are based on faculty-chosen topics, designed to show students what faculty are thinking about but, more importantly, how faculty are thinking about a specific topic. They also point the way forward toward further exploration. As with a senior seminar, each class is small and is composed of students with similar interests. First year seminars emphasize student responsibility and participation and hone the skills involved in investigating a subject slowly, closely, and in depth. The first-year seminar launches students into the pleasures and demands of higher education. Course topics vary.
