Changes and challenges for the Chinese programs |
Number of courses offered each semester is determined by the College of Arts Dean’s Office now, leaving no autonomy to the Department or the instructor. There has been low enrolment (usu. under 15) in Mandarin courses, which often results in course cancellation. |
