<p>There is a certain number of convo credits that have to be filled in “faith development,” regardless of whether or not the student is religious. The other categories, if you’re interested, are</p>
<p>Academic Lecture
Culture and Arts
Personal/Professional Growth
Community Service
Amateur Bullfighting/Misc. Extreme Sports
Elective</p>
<p>The elective component is filled by whatever run-off/roll-over comes from filled categories. For example, if you need 10 faith development credits and you get 12, 2 will go straight to elective. </p>
<p>So far only three students have been injured in fulfilling the Amateur Bullfighting requirements. All are expected to graduate on time.</p>
<p>**Concerned parents/students, please note that I am kidding about the Amateur Bullfighting and Misc. Extreme Sports. No such category exists for convocation.</p>
