| Other information: | |
| The course catalog mistakenly lists the Communication Core courses under the Media Production Track. This is redundant as students must complete the Communication Core AND the Media Production Track to complete this major. | |
| Resource statement: | |
| No new resources are required. | |
| Web components statement: | |
| Rationale: | |
| We need to correct this error in the course catalog. No real changes to the major are being made. As it is, it looks like students have to take these three courses twice to complete this major! | |
