<p>The SAGES seminar room is used by various SAGES classes. I believe it’s the luck of the draw. I had my seminar in their last semester.</p>
<p>I don’t think SAGES was made to increase the college’s USnews rating. I think it was created out of genuine concern for students’ communication skills after they had graduated. How well it approaches this issue is open for judgement. And no, it’s usually not a joke class (although it depends on the professor). The professors grade seriously and use the 0-100 (F-A) scale.</p>
