Dear All,
Please share attached courses with your students. MAS courses are great for (upper
division) free electives.
Thank you - Sylvia

Subject: MAS Low Enrollment Courses
Hello Sylvia,
I know this is an incredibly busy time of the semester with advising and registration.
I wanted to share flyers for some of our Spring 2023 MAS classes that have low
enrollment. As you know, our program is working hard to enroll students in our
intermediate and upper-division courses. We're mostly concerned about the following
courses:
MAS 3063 Historical Legacies: Chicanas/xs/os in Education, with Dr. Sonya Alemán, which
only has two students enrolled
MAS 4053 Special Topics: Mexican American labor, with Dr. José Villarreal, which only has
two students enrolled
MAS 4053 Special Topics: MAS Fitness and Wellness, with Prof. Alessandra Sanchez, which
only has two students enrolled
MAS 2053 MAS Corazon de San Antonio (Ensemble), with Dr. Rachel Cruz, which only has two
students enrolled (perhaps music majors can take this as an elective)
I'm attaching flyers that you can share with our colleagues in the Office of Advising.
Hopefully, they can print out / post and share with students.
We appreciate all of your efforts in encouraging students to enroll in our MAS classes!
Have a great mini-break,
Lilliana

Subject: MAS Spring 2023 flyers
Dear Sylvia,
I hope you're having a great semester.
I'd like to share flyers for our upcoming Spring 2023 classes. As you can see,
we'll be offering our two core curriculum courses virtually and at both campuses.
We'll also be offering two new special topics courses -- a Mexican American Labor
course with Dr. José Villagran, and a MAS Fitness and Wellness course with Professor
Alessandra Sánchez. We're also offering two courses for the MAS Music emphases -- a
Latinx Music Production and Industry class and our MAS Corazon Practicum which have had
low enrollment.
We would appreciate if you could share our flyers with your advisors so they can encourage
students to take our classes.
Thanks so much for all of your support in sustaining MAS at UTSA, and please don't
hesitate to reach out to us if you have any questions.
with much appreciation!
