Hi Dr. Riedesel,
I hope these comments are helpful.

ELEC 121 ? I did take this course, and I was glad that I did.  
I didn?t have any EE experience before this class, and it was 
a good background course.  It did have some overlap with CS 230,
but 230 would have been too overwhelming to me without the EE 121. 

I took PHYS 222 and not 213.  The lab was a little redundant.  
I wouldn?t call it the most valuable class I?ve ever taken, but 
I wouldn?t call it useless either.  However, I was excited when 
the requirement was changed to 222 instead of 213 ? I really do 
not want to take 213 unless I absolutely have to.  I can?t 
comment on the 213 changes because I?m not sure what all it covers.

CSCE 340 ? I didn?t take this course, but I took ENGM 480 over the 
summer on engineering study abroad, which counted as 340.  

CSCE 361 ? I wanted to take this course even though it wasn?t 
required.  I?m not sure if it should be required, but I think 
covering systems level engineering is a good idea if there?
s enough room for it in the course.

I don?t really know how either the CS or EE departments set up their 
senior design classes, so I can?t really comment on that.

I haven?t taken any 300 or 400 ELECs yet.

I did not take CSCE 105.  If 155 and 156 were merged, I think I would 
miss the SQL, PHP, and HTML of 156.  I enjoyed the Java and general 
object-oriented programming concepts of 155, but would any of 
that be redundant from 105?  I don?t know what all is taught in 105.

Hope some of this helps!
