  • Popular options for core courses:
    • Registration week procedure: here's how to beat the rush and obtain entry to a good set of courses.  Take a pre-approved card to the registrar's office EARLY -- before they even open-- on the day your class is assigned.  Set your alarm!  (Line up the bucket of ice water over your bed, and have your dog pull the cord at dawn?) 

    Bring your pre-written registration card to class Monday or Tuesday; if you do it correctly it will only take a minute for me to check it and sign. 
    Do write in three or four alternate courses, and check the alternate box (right side) for these.  Then I will pre-approve the backup courses so that you won't need a return trip through the registrar's lines! All PSC courses can be listed as alternates -- I'll pre-approve them in just case you need. 
    Office hours -- afternoons daily till 3 pm, since I am teaching in mornings.  See office hours page.

    Come in with your likely courses and alternatives pre-written on your card! 
    Freshmen and sophomores: don't forget to write in required core classes first. 
    PSC majors: consider HIST 205 and Math 171.
