All Freshmen are in First Year Studies.

 

[NDohio]

Ha - yeah. I kinda forgot he was a frosh ...

 

[IrishinSyria]

I thought Theology was generally considered the hardest major in Arts and Letters?

 

[Irish Glory]

he is taking engineering courses though

Kinda depends on how you want to define it. I'd argue a few languages are tougher than PLS, and maybe Econ.

 

[NDdomer2]

Somewhat surprised only one in IT.

Jesus Christ Amir with the double major and football. God bless him.

A double major isn't any extra work. You still take the same number of credits as everyone else, just specific ones.

ETA: I don't even think "Business, Undeclared" is possible for an academic senior. You have to pick a major in Mendoza after sophomore year.

Those specific ones are typically tougher than the other "surrounding" classes on just one major.

Regardless. See my other comment. "Business Undeclared" isn't a real thing so the info is either old or inaccurate anyways.

 

[dshans]

Just curious --- what is "PLS."

It's been four decades since I was at ND and my memory is probably not what it once was, but this has me befuddled.

 

[NDdomer2]

Double majors can be more classes if the majors are so distinctly different that they have no overlapping courses.

E.g.accounting and business management ent. Most like share a majority of the 100 & 200 level classes so u essentially are knocking out two birds with one stone.

A history major and accounting major however likely have no overlap other than you "electives" credits needed don't double because of two majors. But no two for ones on the course requirements for those two majors.

But, since all these guys take summer semester too the get ample opportunity to take all those classes and graduate on time without having to carry 18 credit hour semesters. So their course load at any one given time is no more than a student with one major or undeclared.

Come on man, we talked about this in another thread.

Program of Liberal Studies... Aka read and write until you die. Hundreds of pages of the classics every day.

Also known to stand for Probably Law School and Pretentious Little Sh*ts.

 

[BostonND]

Regardless. See my other comment. "Business Undeclared" isn't a real thing so the info is either old or inaccurate anyways.

"Business, undeclared" means that it says "enrolled in Mendoza College of Business" on the UND site, so the kid hasn't picked a specific major yet. Same thing with Arts and Letters. This is the normal progression for Sophomores after FYS, as you'll notice from the players listed.

I had a "minor" and it translated into a lot more work.

 

[dublinirish]

Whoa! Take a step back!! Back Off Boogaloo!!!

I recall a "discussion" of General Studies but not of the Program of Liberal Studies. But as I've said, my "old gray matter" ain't what it usta be.

You gots a beef against education for education's sake in opposition to trade school?

 

[NDPhilly]

Ishaq as a philosophy major is so funny to me yet it makes sense lol.

Can Anyone find lists like this for other schools?

[dublinirish]

It wouldn't surprise me if ND changed the nomenclature to reflect its breadth, but within one college and with strict curricular expectations.

Ahem!! And no, I didn't do law school.

 

[BGIF]

Ahem!! And no, I didn't do law school.

Ahem!! Thus, leaving the "Prententious Little Sh*ts".


Are we to make the leap that you are now "Big Sh*T"?


Sorry, I'm late to this discussion and just playing deductive catchup with the premises offered.

 

[NorthDakota]

Refreshing to see that ND has guys in real majors. Up here its a lot of Phy Ed and other soft crap like that.
