Dear All -
I am participating in a study here at Appalachian State University about
whether we should restructure the mathematics and statistics
requirements for our biology/ecology majors. For example, should we
require all majors to take an entire semester of calculus?
I have written an explanation of why we are looking into this, and you
can read the essay by going to this link on Google Drive:

I would welcome comments from those interested in this subject, which
would help us out here at Appalachian State in our discussions of this
important subject.
Thanks!
