Academic Advising
The College believes that academic advisement is necessary for the vitality and success of the student’s undergraduate education. The purposes of Liberal education require that the education of the student forms a coherent whole. Therefore, the requirements of the Liberal Studies Program and to a degree the major field are determined by the individual student’s intellectual interests, needs, and abilities. Academic approval of a course of study is required of all students in the College. Students who have not declared a major field must consult their academic advisor in the College before registering for courses. Students who have declared their major field must consult the faculty advisor assigned by their department. Once a student has declared a major field, the faculty advisor in the department has principal responsibility for the academic program of the student. The student should not expect that courses selected without the advice and consent of an advisor will satisfy the requirements of the College.
