List of subjects from Patricia Werly
Pat submitted a list of inactive courses from the legacy system which will need to be converted. Pat can bring courses over through conversion so they won’t have to be entered by hand in TEST. 
 
GEN: Upon review of the list it was discovered that the code of GEN was listed for Genetics. The code of GEN is currently listed as General Credit for transfer credits. Chris will work with GEN to see what other options are available.
