Do they take Physics, Calculus, and Chemistry?

I can't say anythung about calculus & physics, but back ca 1975, just out of curiosity, and because I had room for electives, [and had long had a stomach full of the 'humanities' side of the campus] I took a class called Ecological Chemistry.

It dealt with applying basic chemistry concepts to the environment. It did not require any chemistry beyond a year of high school chem as a prerequisite.

The sad thing is, for those who only took it, it satisfied the chemistry requirement for many of the life sciences majors.

That confirms my worst fears. I once tutored someone who took something like "Chemistry for Divinity Students".

It was just a way of paying, getting it out of the way, and forgetting it.
