PHILOSOPHY DEPARTMENT
POLICIES REGARDING REGISTRATION FOR GENERAL EDUCATION COURSES
For 2008-09, the
Assistant Undergraduate Director is Professor Karen Stohr. Contact her
at kes39@georgetown.edu or
(202) 687-1978.
General rules
1) All students must take one course in ethics and one course in general
philosophy (non-ethics). SFS students who have taken PHIL 099 may choose
a second course in either area.
2) The first course in philosophy will ordinarily be PHIL 010 or PHIL
020, and the second course will ordinarily be a bridge course (PHIL
100-199).
3) Seniors are not permitted to enroll in PHIL 010 or PHIL 020, except
in unusual circumstances. Seniors who have not yet taken any philosophy
courses should enroll in a bridge course for their first and second
philosophy courses.
4) Courses at the 200 level or above have a prerequisite of two philosophy
courses.
Add/drop policies
1) The assistant undergraduate director is responsible for providing
department approval on all add forms for general education philosophy
courses.
2) For closed courses, the department will rely on the registrar’s
waitlist system whenever possible.
3) Students will be given permission to add into closed courses only
in unusual circumstances such as intractable schedule conflicts. Any
student with such a conflict must get verification of it from his or
her dean (or for NHS students, Academic Affairs advisor) before the
assistant undergraduate director will review the request. |
