What if I want to count a Special Topics course offered in another department toward the minor?
Because Special Topics classes offered in other departments rotate themes every semester, they cannot be cross-listed permanently with Gender Studies. However, if you want to count toward your minor a Special Topics class focusing on women and gender, you may seek approval of it for your minor from the Isom Advisory Committee. E-mail the course description, name of the teacher, and the number of credit hours to the Director. The Director will then consult the Isom Advisory Committee, which will approve (or not) the course for the minor. A class approved for one student will be approved for all minors. When you prepare to graduate, the Director will send a memo to your Dean’s office, explaining that this class fulfilled your minor.
