Three departments toughen requirements to ensure students ready for higher classes
By Jennifer Bach Kansan staff writer
Students in three departments of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences this fall face more stringent grade and class requirements.
Because there are not enough instructors to meet student demand, the computer science, political science and communications departments have established grade point average requirements, said Sally Frost-Mason, associate dean of the college.
Frost-Mason also said requiring students to take introductory classes would prepare them for the higher-level courses offered within the major.
This would prevent students from enrolling in courses above their aca-

The computer science department's new requirements include three basic courses and a GPA of 2.0 before a student can enroll in upper-level classes.
The political science department now requires students to take five introductory courses and maintain a final grade of 2.8 before taking upper-level courses.
The communications department now requires that all pre-communication majors fill out an application for admission, take two introductory classes, complete 90 hours of course work, and submit a resumes before moving on to upper-level classes.
The communications department also has set a limit on the number of students that can major in communications studies.
Frost-Mason said the departments needed eligibility requirements because the University's open admissions policy for Kansas residents allowed students who may not be willing to work as hard as other students
Allan Cigler, professor of political science, said part of the eligibility process was to make sure students would be prepared for more advanced classes.
"There was a feeling we were getting marginal students," Gigler said.
He said many professors thought that students were not prepared for classes.
"There are a lot of students that come and say they want a career in computer science because everything is computerized and it doesn't say, 'I have said, I have strength in those areas, and do want to identify them early on.'"
Jim Miller, associate professor of computer science, said the computer science department wanted students to realize that if they could not pass the required classes with a high grade, they might be in the wrong major.
