<div style="text-align: justify;">
Applications for the Guggenheim Internship 2016 are now available on the <a href="http://barnard.edu/cd/students/funding/specialized/guggenheim" target="_blank">Student Employment Services Website</a>. <span style="color: red;">Deadline to apply is Monday, January 28th, 2016 by 5pm EST</span>.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Generously funded by the Daniel and Florence Guggenheim Foundation, Oscar S. Straus II Fellows in Criminal Justice are a group of Barnard College, Columbia University and Princeton University students who intern each summer at various criminal justice non-profit organizations in the metropolitan New York area. The program was launched in 1996 and provides up to a $450/week stipend for a small number of interns who work for 8-10 weeks in a variety of fields in criminal justice. Internships are coupled with a field trip to a correctional facility, relevant and engaging readings, and periodic seminars featuring lively debate of current related issues, guest speakers, and discussion of the broader internship and career development experience. Internships are open to all class years except current seniors.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Some years ago, the Nine Ways of Knowing were reviewed and clarified by Barnard's Committee on Instruction, and two of the categories were changed accordingly. Because many online resources are comprehensive, you will sometimes see references to General Education Requirements that apply to previous generations of students.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So when you look at the list of classes that fulfill General Education Requirements, be sure to look at the lists of courses approved to fulfill "<b>Ethics and Values</b>" (<u>not</u> "Reason and Value") and "<b>Social Analysis 2</b>" (<u>not</u> "Social Analysis") when looking at <a href="https://snowbird.barnard.edu/pls/bcapp/mybc_courses_reqmts.courses_reqmts">the list of Current Courses Satisfying General Education Requirements</a> or the <a href="http://barnard.edu/provost/teaching-curriculum/GER/courses-satisfying-gers">Comprehensive List of Courses Satisfying General Education Requirements</a>. As always, you can also play this <a href="http://barnardfirstyear.blogspot.com/2015/08/game-to-play-while-you-wait-for-your.html" target="_blank">game</a>. </div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Due to a technical issue, many limited-enrollment courses ("L-courses") were mistakenly coded as open-enrollment courses. If you added one of these courses (e.g. a language course, a science lab, etc.) earlier this week, it may have briefly appeared in your spring 2016 program. All of these courses have now been removed from your spring program and are now waiting in L-course area below the open-enrollment add/drop window. This has been done equitably across the board, so no individual student will have unearned priority or disadvantage in adding limited-enrollment courses.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Because of this, <span style="color: red;"><b>be sure to check your L-course box and add any L-courses there during one of your listed L-course times</b></span>. Questions? Contact the <a href="mailto:registrar@barnard.edu" target="_blank">Registrar</a>.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Some important information and reminders about advance program planning for Spring 2016:</div>
<ul>
<li style="text-align: justify;">For a <b><span style="color: blue;">quick refresher about program filing</span></b>, read over <a href="http://www.barnard.edu/registrar/registration-program-filing/program-filing">the instructions on the Registrar's website</a>.</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: red;">Starting today, you are able to add Spring 2016 courses to your advance program</span> <span style="color: blue;"><b><span style="color: yellow;">if they are open-enrollment courses</span></b> </span>(<i>i.e.,</i> if they do not have a maximum capacity noted in the online Directory of Courses).</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">As you add courses, <span style="color: yellow;"><b><span style="color: blue;">pay attention to your “Comments and Reminders” box</span></b> </span>to see if there are extra steps to take in order to reserve your place in a particular course.</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">During the week of November 16, L-course sign-up will become available to you based on your class year: first-years will have <b><span style="color: blue;">appointment times to sign up for L-courses beginning on Thursday, November 19</span></b>. Note: you can find <a href="http://www.barnard.edu/registrar/registration-program-filing/special-sign-up">information on L-course sign-up procedures here</a>, and you can already see your personal L-course sign-up appointment times on your Spring 2016 myBarnard page. Remember to have a few back-up classes in mind in case spaces are not available by the time you are able to try to add L-courses (and remember that you will have another chance to try to enroll in them in January).</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;"><b><span style="color: blue;">You must have a minimum of 12 points of credit</span></b> on your advance program for Spring 2016.</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">If your advance program ultimately contains more than 18 credits, you will see a message that indicates that you will need your class dean's approval. <b><span style="color: blue;">This approval is required only during the <i>final</i> program filing period in January</span></b> if you wish to maintain more than 18 credits on your Spring 2015 program.</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: red;"><b>The deadline to have a planned advance program on myBarnard, and to have your adviser's approval entered online, is MONDAY, NOVEMBER 23, AT 6:00 P.M.</b></span> You are expected to meet with your adviser at least once before this filing deadline to discuss your plan for the spring semester.<i> Make sure that you are aware of your adviser's schedule so that you meet in plenty of time to receive approval before the deadline.</i></li>
</ul>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
If you are planning to take <b>a Physical Education course</b> in the spring semester, you will need to enter the P.E. lottery, which will take place at the beginning of the spring semester. Instructions for entering the lottery will be posted in January. <b>Therefore, you <u>cannot</u> add a P.E. course to your advance program in November.</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
If you are planning to take <b>a Dance technique course</b> in the spring semester, you can sign up for the class during advance program planning period. <b>Therefore, you <u>can</u> add a Dance technique course to your advance program in November.</b> However, your enrollment in the course will not be confirmed until you attend the class during the first week of classes in January, where audition requirements or space requirements may need to be considered.</div>

<br />
Remember that the lotteries for Spring 2016 courses in the First-Year English program, the First-Year Seminar program, and the Psychology Department <b>are now open</b>. <br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;">Reminder</span>: if you are entering the lottery for <i>both </i>Psychology <i>and </i>FY English or Seminar, check for time conflicts before submitting your lottery selections -- make sure that none of your Psych selections conflict with any of your English/Seminar selections, or wait to enter the Psychology lottery until you have your English/Seminar lottery results. Remember that you will not be able to change your English/Seminar class once you are placed in one. <br />
<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
As you know, <b><span style="color: blue;">the LAB requirement of the Nine Ways of Knowing must be fulfilled by taking two semesters of science courses that have attached laboratory sections, and the two semesters must be in the <u>same</u> science</span></b> (e.g., two semesters of Biology with labs, two semesters of Environmental Science with labs). Lab courses are composed of at least two components: the lecture and the lab. (In some cases, the lab also has an additional required component called either a recitation or a lab lecture.) The lecture and lab typically must be taken concurrently, so students typically take two different semesters of lecture+lab (e.g., BIOL 1500 (lecture) + 1501 (lab) and then BIOL 1502 (lecture) + 1503 (lab), or EESC BC1001 (which includes both lecture and lab) and then EESC BC1002 (which includes both lecture and lab)).</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span style="color: blue;">In the case of Psychology, the configuration of lectures and labs can be slightly different</span></b>. All students who wish to take Psychology courses <span style="color: blue;"><b>must begin with PSYC BC1001 Introduction to Psychology</b>,</span> unless they have AP or IB credit for the course. Until somewhat recently, students who wanted to take Psychology laboratory courses for the LAB requirement would need to take Intro to Psychology as a prerequisite for all other courses, and then take two semesters of the lecture+lab courses to fulfill the LAB, so that the LAB requirement often meant a three-semester commitment, with one lecture course, then two separate lecture+lab courses. <b><i>It is still possible to fulfill the LAB requirement in this way.</i></b></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-style: italic;"><br /></span></div>
<b><div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>However, there is one lab that can be taken separately from the lecture component: PSYC BC1010 Introductory Laboratory in Experimental Psychology. </b>This 1.5-credit lab can be taken <i>concurrently </i>with the Introduction to Psychology lecture to fulfill one semester of the LAB requirement; if students take PSYC BC1001 and PSYC BC1010 together, they would then take one more semester of a lecture+lab Psychology course to complete the LAB requirement.<b> Alternatively, </b>the PSYC 1010 lab can be taken <i>at a later time </i>than the lecture <b>(and <u>it is the only PSYC lab</u> for which this is the case)</b>--<i>i.e.</i>, students can take PSYC BC1001 Intro to Psyc in one semester (or place out of it via AP or IB), and take PSYC BC1010 Introductory Laboratory in another semester, and the combination will still be considered <u>one full<i> </i>semester</u> of the LAB requirement. In that case, students would still have a three-semester commitment, but the amount of coursework required over those three semesters would be a bit lighter than in the past, with one lecture course, one stand-alone lab, and one lecture+lab course. <b>Note: The Psychology Department does <u>not</u> allow students to take PSYC BC1010 lab if they have already taken another lab course in the department.</b></div>
</b><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Got Questions?</b>If you have questions about the PSYC BC1010 Introductory Laboratory course or about other lecture+lab courses in the Psychology Department, or about fulfilling the LAB requirement with Psychology courses, please check the FAQs on the departmental website (<a href="http://psychology.barnard.edu/faqs">http://psychology.barnard.edu/faqs</a>), visit the Psychology Department Office at 415Q Barnard Hall, or email the Department at <a href="mailto:psych@barnard.edu">psych@barnard.edu</a>. </div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
If you hope to take a <b><span style="color: blue;">Psychology laboratory</span></b> course or a <span style="color: blue;"><b>Psychology statistics</b></span> course next semester, you will need to <b>enter the department's lottery</b>. Psychology <i>lecture </i>courses are open enrollment, and you sign up for them via the regular Advance Program Filing process (add them on myBarnard; get your adviser's approval).</div>
</div>
<br />
The Psychology lottery will begin on Thursday, November 5, at 12:00 a.m., and <b>will close on Wednesday, November 11, at 11:00 p.m.</b> You can enter the lottery through the "Psych Lab/Stat" link via the Academics tab on myBarnard (see screenshot below). There, you will find detailed instructions, which you should read carefully. You should also consult the Psychology Department website for <b><a href="http://psychology.barnard.edu/requirements/college-science">information about fulfilling the LAB requirement with Psychology labs</a></b>, as well as <b><a href="http://psychology.barnard.edu/faqs#three">frequently asked questions about the Psychology lottery</a>, and also read the post immediately following this one.</b><br />
<br />
The results of the Psychology lottery will be posted on Friday, November 13, outside of the Psychology Department (415Q Milbank). <span style="color: red;">Number one question: when will I find out if I'm getting into a class from the waiting list? No new information will be available until the first week of classes in the spring semester.</span><br />
<span style="color: red;"><br /></span>Once you have confirmed your placement in a lab or stats course, you are responsible for <b>adding it to your myBarnard program</b> before your adviser approves your advance program.<br />

You may enter the lottery by logging into your myBarnard account, going to the "Academics" tab and clicking on the "First-Year English lottery" link. (The First-Year Seminar lottery is in the same area of myBarnard, so be sure that you are entering the correct lottery.) <br />
<br />
Using the 5-digit call number for the relevant sections, you will be asked to submit your top <b><u>five</u> </b>course choices, in order of preference. <b>Please note that the lottery is <u>not</u> time-sensitive -- <i>i.e.,</i> there is no priority given for earlier submissions over later submissions -- and that you have an equal chance of being placed into <u>any</u> of the four sections that you list among your preferences. </b><br />
<b><br /></b><b>When making your selections, keep in mind:</b><br />
<ul>
<li>Pick 5 courses you are definitely willing to take -- you may be placed in any one of your choices, and this placement cannot be changed.</li>
<li>Check your selections against any known time commitments (sports practices, work schedule, other required courses at Barnard, Columbia, JTS, or elsewhere).</li>
<li>If you are also entering the Psychology lottery, make sure that <i>none</i> of your Psychology selections conflict with <i>any</i> of your First-Year Foundation selections, or wait until you get your Psychology lottery results before entering the FY English lottery.</li>
</ul>
<b>Your First-Year English placement will be posted by Tuesday, November 10 at 12:00 p.m.</b> You can look in the same area of myBarnard to find your assigned English section. Don't forget to then <b>use the 5-digit call number to add the course to your Spring 2016 program</b>. Be sure that the English class appears on your advance program before your adviser submits her/his approval online.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
You can view a list of the Spring 2016 first-year seminar course titles, days, times, and descriptions (click on the section number for a description of a particular course) in the <a href="http://www.columbia.edu/cu/bulletin/uwb/sel/FYSB_Spring2016.html" target="_blank">Columbia Directory of Classes</a>. To read through titles and descriptions more easily (but without day/time info), you can look at the <a href="http://barnard.edu/catalogue/department/first-year-seminar/courses" target="_blank">online Barndard Course Catalogue under First-Year Seminar</a>. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: red;">Update: some descriptions were missing from online sources earlier this week (thanks to those who pointed this out!) -- they are now all available in the <a href="http://barnard.edu/catalogue/department/first-year-seminar/courses" target="_blank">Barnard Course Catalogue</a> or via <a href="https://docs.google.com/a/barnard.edu/document/d/1Cacjd_nL7KxetdMLZJJrdlRGkikJcP1Nudeo3ZhlaJk/edit?usp=sharing" target="_blank">this link</a>.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
If you need to take First-Year Seminar in spring 2016, you must enter the lottery by logging into your myBarnard account, going to the "Academics" tab and clicking on "First-Year Seminar lottery" link. (The First-Year English lottery is in the same area of myBarnard, so please be sure that you are entering the correct lottery.)</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Using the 5-digit call number for each relevant seminar, you will be asked to submit your top <b><u>five </u></b>course choices, in order of preference. <b>Please note that the lottery is <u>not</u> time-sensitive -- i.e., there is no priority given for earlier submissions over later submissions -- and that you have an equal chance of being placed into <u>any</u> of the five courses that you list as preferences.</b></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-weight: bold;"><br /></span></div>
<b><div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>When making your selections, keep in mind:</b></div>
</b><br />
<ul>
<li style="text-align: justify;">Pick 5 courses you are definitely willing to take -- you may be placed in any one of your choices, and this placement cannot be changed.</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">Check your selections against any known time commitments (sports practices, work schedule, other required courses at Barnard, Columbia, JTS, or elsewhere).</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">If you are also entering the Psychology lottery, make sure that <i>none</i> of your Psychology selections conflict with <i>any</i> of your First-Year Foundation selections, or wait to get your Psychology lottery results before entering the FY Seminar lottery.</li>
</ul>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Your First-Year Seminar placement will be posted by Tuesday, November 10, at 12:00 p.m.</b> Look in the same area of myBarnard to find your assigned First-Year Seminar, then don't forget to <b>use the 5-digit call number to add the course to your Spring 2016 program</b>. Be sure that the seminar appears on your advance program before your adviser submits her/his approval online.</div>

Although you're just now getting through your first big assignments and midterms, it will be no time at all before you'll need to think about your plan for next semester. Don't worry: you still have a few weeks before you need to give it too much thought, but you'll want to have a sense of what will be happening and when.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The First-Year Class Dean will be holding three general<b> <span style="color: blue;">"program planning meetings" for all first-year students</span></b><span style="color: blue;">.</span> At the meetings, you'll learn important information about the timeline for the remainder of the semester, including the process and procedures for advance program planning for the spring semester (e.g., upcoming deadlines, lottery sign-ups, course enrollment, departmental program meetings). You'll also learn more about procedures and policies that may be relevant to this semester (e.g., the pass/d/fail policy, the course withdrawal procedure, policies and procedures regarding final exams).</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: blue;"><br /></span></div>
<b><div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span style="color: blue;">These program planning meetings will be on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday, October 19, 20, and 21, 5:30-6:30 p.m., locations TBA. All first-years are required to attend <i>one </i>of these sessions.</span></b></div>
