BA bio majors are encouraged to do the same but some defer organic until the second year. Because of other curriculum constraints, the chem engineers cannot take organic until the second year. New College: None University of Michigan: SHORT ANSWER: No, although science-motivated students have a 3 hr/wk supplemental instruction option if they want to explore the subject at a deeper level. LONG ANSWER: No. There is a supplemental instruction program that science-motivated students may elect, and in doing so earn Honors credit. The Structured Study Group (SSG) program employs undergraduate juniors and seniors who are interested in future faculty development as facilitators for these sessions. In the second term of “Structure and Reactivity” there is a separate section of the course offered to about 100 self-selected, science-motivated students. All of the students in this sectio
