Remarks
Students enrolling in ECON 102 should have completed a college-level algebra course; students without any algebra background should consider enrolling in a basic algebra course. Students are unlikely to be successful in ECON 102 if they expect to remediate their deficit in algebra while simultaneously attempting to complete ECON 102. For students who plan to graduate this semester, please communicate your intent to graduate to your instructor. This will alert your instructor to the need to submit your final grade in time to meet the published graduation deadlines.
