Math 101 Basic Math is a review of arithmetic and pre-algebra. Here are most of the topics
covered:
--Arithmetic of fractions, decimals and percents.
--Proportions.
--Negative and positive numbers.
--Solving simple linear equations.
--At their option some professors will include geometry or statistical topics.
This class is not a self-help course; it is an introductory science course. You might gain some
insight into your own behavior or the behavior of others along the way, but that is not the
primary focus of this course.
The majority of the course will be spent learning about normal human behaviors and the
techniques that psychologists use to research these behaviors. We will discuss psychological
disorders and treatments, but only during the last few weeks of the course.

Sociology 101 (General Sociology) This course will introduce you to the
study of humankind's most important creation-- the social group. When you think
about it, everything that we do is either directly or indirectly influenced by the
society in which we live. All of our greatest achievements, good and bad, are the
products of human groups. Even the most solitary artist or writer would be utterly
devoid of creativity without a social context in which to nurture individual genius or
without an audience from which to draw critical evaluation. It is said that the "pen is
mightier than the sword," but both were created by a far stronger power-- the
human group. Indeed, there is very little in our lives that occurs outside the group
context. Chances are that you awoke this morning within the confines of one group-your family; went to work in the context of another-- your place of employment; and
are now in quite a different group-- this class. Each of these groups influences your
behavior in very different ways. In this course, you will examine the various skills
and techniques that sociologists employ when studying groups of people. You will
then examine a wide variety of groups and the behaviors that characterize them.
