Additional Comments
Senior comprehensive
examinations, drafted by the appropriate participating faculty,
will be administered in the winter quarter.
CLAS 490 Senior Studies
must be taken during the senior year and will involve participation
in one of the courses listed 'A' not previously taken. The student
must get permission in advance from the professor and must do extensive
specialized work in the subject area covered by that course. For
example, a student who had taken CLAS 210, HIST 226, CLAS 220, and
CLAS 270 to satisfy the core requirements would, at some point int
he senior year, petition the instructor of CLAS / HIST 230.to register
for that class as CLAS 490 Senior Studies. Upon the instructor's
approval, the student would pursue specialized studies related to
and arising out of the material of CLAS / HIST 230. Except in very
unusual cases, classical studies majors will be expected to take
CLAS 490 from a member of the classics faculty.
