Dear Dr. Williams,

 

I am in charge of most of the accounting curriculum stuff for the Department of Accounting and MIS.  In that role, I screwed up last year.  Up until then, our majors had always had a requirement that they would take ONE class from either Psychology, Sociology, or Anthropology.  In an attempt to clean up the curriculum last year as part of recognizing the new University breadth requirements, the PSYC, SOCI, ANTH requirement somehow got lost in the shuffle.  However, we would like to put this requirement back into our accounting curriculum.  In order to do that, I need your permission to include SOCI as part of the requirement.  If you approve, then just answer this e-mail and I will include it with our faculty senate forms.  If you have questions, I am happy to do my best to answer them.  Thank you for your time.

Yes, by all means, we support this.
