Changes to Chicana/o Studies Classes Effective Fall 2017

All Chicana/o Studies courses have been renumbered and renamed to match the Ethnic Studies courses at Cypress College. ETHS 140 is now ETHS 150 Introduction to Chicana/o Studies; ETHS 141 has been split into two courses: ETHS 151 Chicana/o History I and ETHS 152 Chicana/o History II. Part I covers Mesoamerica to the Mexican American War and Part II covers the Mexican American War to the present. The history courses do not have to be taken consecutively. ETHS 142 is now ETHS 153 Chicana/o & Latina/o Contemporary Issues. All Fullerton College Chicana/o Studies courses are transferable, and they now fulfill the Multicultural Education requirement for graduation, including ETHS 152, which now fulfills the CSU Graduation Requirement for US History, Constitution & American Ideals.
