Good afternoon all, Please see the information below from the Biology department regarding some sections that will be linked.

To avoid the issues that happened during Spring registration we have put a department hold on these sections. Students must come to the Biology Department Office to register. They will be asked to sign a form that indicates if they drop from one course we will automatically drop them from the other course. We will be monitoring the enrollment, and dropping anyone who is not registered in both paired courses. Please do not do overrides for these courses! Please pass this information along to all advising staff. The course is going well this semester, the students seem to approve. All the WRC 1023 content is taught from a Biology perspective. The large report that they put together is graded for both classes, so they “kill two birds with one stone”. Depending on the demand we may very well expand to more sections in Spring 2019. Feel free to encourage the students who need both classes to sign up for these linked sections, and let us know about the demand. Best Regards, Martha [cid:image001.png@01D3A58A.D8D27F20]
