Fall 2015 GPAC Additions/Subtractions

CCAS STUDENTS: The Associate Dean for Undergraduate Studies has made several late G-PAC decisions that may impact your class selection for summer or fall. Courses have been added to various categories at the recommendation of departments; others have been removed, having been judged as not meeting the learning goals established by the Columbian College faculty.


These changes may impact your Fall 2015 registration, so please review carefully.

Vanilla Ice Has A Special Message about Advising Holds

VANILLA

Yo, UHP, Let’s kick it! 
 
All right stop, Collaborate and listen /
Advising holds on your registration /
Alerts in Banner: unsightly /
shows like a warning daily and nightly / 
How to take it off? Yo — I don’t know /
Go to the blog, and we’ll show /
CCAS, they put a hold for advising /
Catherine and Liz can take it off if you complete the necessary advising hold removal form, but you will need to see the schedule of classes for next semester first and that’s not yet available.
Okay, Vanilla clearly lost his flow.
This is all to say that 1) we know that CCAS has already put advising holds on their students, 2) Catherine and Liz will be able to remove them for UHPers, but 3) no one can really have them removed until the schedule of classes comes out, so just sit tight.
Also, 4) the 90’s, when most of you were born, was a really, really weird time.
