Data source(s) and notes about the submission:
The discrepancy in numbers reflect 2 different sources for the information on sustainability courses. In part 1, the number of focused and inclusive courses is based on a master list of all of the sustainability courses offered (60). In part 2, I copied from our sustainability studies website, our current listings of sustainability courses offered in the fall of 2018 and the spring of 2019 (50). Not all classes run every year, as evidenced here.
