As it turns out, the math department would like to have
further discussion of whether or not transferring in MATH 202 will allow students
to automatically register for MATH 103 or 104—or any other course with a MATH
051 pre-req.
Therefore, with their request for more discussion, I have
deleted my previous blog post on this topic, and I will advise you to revert, at least temporarily, to our former
policy of having students take placement tests if they transfer in MATH 202.
I apologize for this change and retraction. However, I will
not keep you as an advisor – or more importantly our students – in limbo or a
situation of uncertainty.
I will update you again after the Math department meets
again during Week 0.
