Modern Language Graduation Requirement Change

This announcement is a notification of a recent curriculum change approved by the Academic Affairs Committee changing the modern language graduation requirement.

Students must meet minimum functional facility (speaking, listening, reading and writing) at the 112 level to meet the graduation requirement. All students wishing to present 112 or above competencies in German, French, or Spanish, must take a placement test to determine appropriate level. Students who place into 211 or above are exempt from further language study as they will have fulfilled the modern language graduation requirement. Those placing into 112 must enter at the 112 level.

Students will not receive course or graduation credit for modern language courses below their placement score. Students taking 111 and/or 112 must earn a grade of 2.0 or better in order to satisfy the modern language graduation requirement.

Incoming Adult Student Looking for Housing

I got in touch with this incoming student who's looking for a place in the next couple of weeks. She seems like she'd be a good candidate for someone looking for a subletter. She flies in soon, so needs a response ASAP -- contact her, Patricia Daniels, directly at 910-735-0652 or pdaniels@hush.com

Here's her original Craigslist posting:

"I am looking to rent a room or be a housemate. I would like to relocate to Minneapolis sometime between July and September to attend school in the fall, for 2-3 years. I have never been to MN. I am female over 45 years old but please don't let that get in the way of selecting me as a housemate as I do not mind sharing a home with younger people, male or female. While in school the past few years I have had a variety of roommates much younger and some older than me, all who I've gotten along with well. I try to get along, cooperate, and I really adapt to most living situations. Besides, being a student I would prefer to share a place with another student regardless of age, and it would be nice if they were interested in math or science and psychology. I do not have a car and I would like to live within walking distance to colleges, shopping, theater, coffee shops, etc.

I do not smoke, but I do not mind if others do. I do not use drugs, I meditate. I am clean and pretty neat but not a fanatic, I rarely drink only sometimes with dinner or at live entertainment. I don't usually have a lot of company, I do not watch much TV and would rather read a book. I love Indian food and I like to cook and experiment with ethnic food, tofu and healthy dishes. I usually listen to New Age music in my room but I love live bands and theater from opera to progressive metal music. I play the guitar a little bit. I am responsible, dependable and honest.

If you think you would like to have me as your roommate I would like to know more about what you have to offer me. Thank you."
