Students who withdraw from both courses after Add/Drop (Weeks #2-12), or who finish both courses with a C- or lower, may submit an academic petition for permission to retake the entire link. They also may take a different link to fulfill their Core requirement. Students who drop both courses during Add/Drop (Week #1) may retake the entire link without the submission of an academic petition. ![]() Consequently, the University has a unique policy for how to resolve drops, withdrawals, and insufficient grades, which may occur in one or both linked classes. ![]() Students must pass both courses in the linked pair for Core fulfillment. The linked pairs require a level of integration that distinguishes them from any other offerings. One distinct element of the Integrative Core Curriculum is the requirement that students pass a linked pair of courses that examine similar concepts from different disciplinary perspectives. Requirement: Students will take one pair of linked 3-credit courses, which are co-requisites, from two different departments, during a single semester. Two three-credit courses from different departments and disciplinary perspectives will focus on a shared theme or a shared set of topics and ask students to use the methodologies of each discipline to gain a deeper understanding of the theme, intellectual question, and/or real-world problem. Equipping our students to examine real-world problems and key intellectual questions through multiple disciplinary lenses is the goal of our linked courses. Few critical issues facing us today can be adequately addressed through a single perspective. ![]()
