First, wondering what will fill information literacy? Oral communication is obvious. Nothing I have populated into the information literacy slot.
Luckily there is no lab requirement under Natural World. Honestly, I was a bit worried about the unequal credit notation.
Also, Psychology of Women and Marriage & the Family no longer seem to fit the Civic Learning category. (sigh) Diversity and Civic Engagement are blank. Would imagine something from the Politics/Government/Law subjects will fit Civic Engagement. I thought one of my two classes would have still filled the Diversity slot, but unfortunately that did not happen. Maybe the slot now needs to be preapproved by Advising? I guess when the new catalog is released we will find out what is now accepted for both Diversity and Civic Engagement.
The biggest change is that there is now a 60 credit Gen Ed Core Section across degree plans. For BSBA majors, the Gen Ed Section no longer incorporates the communications and social science business requirements. Managerial/Business Communications, Macro & Microeconomics have now been moved to Business Core which eliminates the Business Elective Section (9 credits). That really sucks because Intro to Business, Prin of Supervision and or the free TEEX courses filled that section seamlessly. :^(
Oh well, there is always change, students will adjust. You guys who applied in time to lock in the 2014-2015 catalog...smart move!
They seemed to have moved a lot of courses from Gen Ed to business area.

Don't waste time by trying to save time. The only sure way to complete your degree is to knock out credits quickly and efficiently.
Don't let easiness bite you in the rear. Know your endgame (where you want to be) and plan backward from there. Your education is a means to an end.
Be honest professionally, socially and academically. There are people (especially little ones) who look up to you and they're going by your example.
Be proud. Whether you're an Engineer or Fast Food worker, there is honor and dignity in hard work.
Picking on people weaker than you only proves that you are a weak person.
