Students may take their ASL 1-4 courses in any department, regardless of one's major or minor. Students are required to take courses from two different departments/colleges in order to satisfy the GEC requirement. (Students cannot take all four ASL courses in Education.) Classes at each level, regardless of the department, use the same text and generally cover the same content. And all of the classes, when taken and successfully completed in sequence, fulfill the university's GEC language requirement.
