NOTES:
The department recommends that students who intend to pursue graduate studies in the Judeo-Christian tradition satisfy the requirements for the religion major by taking electives in the Judeo-Christian tradition.
The department recommends that students who intend to pursue graduate studies in world religions take REL 301, REL 304, PLRL 301, PLRL 306, and REL 375 (Independent Study) either in satisfying the above requirements or among their electives.
Department faculty urge students who intend to pursue a higher degree in religious studies to take more that the minimum number of hours required to complete an undergraduate major.
Although the courses listed below may not be counted as electives within the religion major or minor, the religion faculty commend them to students as worthy complements to their religion courses:
___ ART 201 Meaning and Method in Art
___ ART 220 History of Art I
___ ART 221 History of Art II
___ ART 308 Myths, Saints, and Symbols
___ ART 351 Medieval Art
___ CL 202 Mythology
___ CL 302 Classical Mythology
___ HON 308 Dante and Giotto
Religion majors who wish to study abroad in the junior year should keep this plan in mind when scheduling courses each semester. If they wish to study in a country where a foreign language
is spoken, they must be sure to enroll in the appropriate language courses at Hood in the freshman and sophomore years.
