Data source(s) and notes about the submission:
Includes only courses offered in Academic Year 2009-10. We counted each time a course section was offered. For example, a course that is held twice (or if there are two sections) in the fall term and once in the spring term was counted as 3 courses. We were consistent with this course-counting methodology for the total number of courses offered.
