New course introduces students to UMSL
A new course in the College of Arts and Sciences had University of Missouri–St. Louis Chancellor Tom George waxing nostalgic on Friday.
“I wish I would have had a course like this one back in 1963,” George told a large classroom of about 130 students.
The course George referred to was Interdisciplinary 1003, or University Studies, a new, one-credit-hour course being required this fall for incoming students in the College of Arts and Sciences. It is a basic introduction to the university that covers the university’s history, organization, culture, resources, research programs and accomplishments.
