@merc81, a student who wishes to combine one specialized major with a broader one like environmental science/ biology better hope that the prerequisite courses are offered at the proper times. The number of LACs which offer essential courses like mineralogy, structural, or petrology more than once or twice a year is exceedingly small. I also totally disagree that a strength of a LAC is the ease of scheduling, but then again, perhaps I’m biased by my experiences having difficulty fitting all my required courses into my schedule at the LAC I transferred from.
Also that course looks to be a very cursory overview of GIS. Pretty much exactly what I said that many LACs lack.
