Colegio part deux

I didn't even think to put course descriptions so here they are!


Biology of Women:
Basic biological principles related to women’s health. Topics include nutrition and fitness, stress management, reproductive anatomy and disorders, sexuality, pregnancy and childbirth, menopause, and other health concerns.


College Algebra:
Designed for students with a solid background in high school algebra. Provides a basis for further mathematical study. Students with a strong mathematical background should take MAT 241 rather than MAT 115. Topics include equations, inequalities, graphs, linear functions, polynomial functions, rational functions, exponential functions, logarithmic functions, and trigonometric functions.
-I don't know why I'm not in calculus because I just took pre calc.  I guess this class is a starter for everyone.

Satisfies the core curriculum requirement for leadership and service.
