Responses for this credit include the courses offered only during the 2010 - 2011 academic year. All 1-unit classes (activity classes) are excluded from both the sustainability course inventory and the total course count. All activity classes are offered on a "satisfactory / no credit" basis and only a limited number (up to 8) may count towards undergraduate degree requirements. Activity classes are typically non-academic and provide extracurricular opportunities such as physical education or a lecture series.
