The English department has renumbered Engl 302 to Engl 507 (“The History and
Development of Modern English”) and thus requested that Engl 302 be dropped from the list
of courses that satisfy the historical perspective component of Gen Ed and that Engl 507 be
added to the list of courses that satisfy the history component of Gen Ed.
