What Counts as a Seminar

For purposes of the seminar requirement for majors (two, at least one in specialization), the two-term senior thesis seminars (C4945/C4946 & C4948/C4949), which together count as eight points, count as one seminar, normally inside the specialization.

The remaining four points count towards the history major, but do not count as a seminar.

Independent-study senior theses (C4997, C4998) do not count towards the seminar requirement. 

Supervised individual research (C4951, C4952) does not count towards the seminar requirement.

Ordinarily, graduate courses count towards the seminar requirement.
