UNI 101 is a similar one-hour seminar for first semester freshmen that meets once a week. UNI 394, also a similar course, is designed primarily for transfer and re-entry students. They meet for two hours once a week for eight weeks, earning one hour of upper division elective credit. Methods used to evaluate students' coursework include tests, out of class exercises, and class participation. Much of the class time is devoted to discussion and large-group interaction.
Instructors take attendance during each class meeting, and grades can lower due to poor attendance.
To enable students and instructors to have frequent and meaningful interaction, class size is limited to 25 students per section.
