HONORS ENGLISH COURSES
Students are responsible for ensuring that they have successfully completed all course prerequisites and that they have not taken an antirequisite course. The 2011/12 Academic Calendar (p. 44) reads: "Students are responsible for ensuring that their selection of courses is appropriate and accurately recorded, that all course prerequisites have been successfully completed, and that they are aware of any antirequisite course(s) that they have taken. If the student does not have the requisites for a course, and does not have written special permission from his or her Dean to enroll in the course, the University reserves the right to cancel the student's registration in the course. This decision may not be appealed."
