The complete core list

So I'm flipping through the Big Book of Concentrations (Handbook for Students: Fields of Concentration 05-06) and on pg 26 it lists some classes that fall under core area requirements. This can't possible be the whole list, though, can it? It's just the courses that aren't "designed for a general audience?" And if that's the case, does anyone know where we can get a list of all the classes that meet each core requirement?

Also, I think I read somewhere that you can get courses that aren't on the core list approved by your department to satisfy core requirements and just want to make sure I didn't make that up in a fit of hallucination.

You did not make that up. You can petition to get a course counted in the Core. I don't know many people who tried this, but the ones who tried succeeded.

They're expanding the departmental courses this year that will count for Core credit, so what you're looking at now is outdated.
