Welcome back, CCI minors! Whether you’re a new minor or back for another year, we wanted to provide a refresh for everyone on all of the advising resources available. Scroll through the list below to find out who to contact for what:
Unit Advising/Program Advising -- For advising on CCI specific curriculum requirements you can contact CCI Director Dr. Patrick Fuery, Dr. Jamie Larkin or Program Manager Shannon Halverson. This includes questions about the CCI Minor program structure according to your catalogue year, and/or questions regarding substitutions within the minor. Please be aware though we can advise you on matters of CCI you will always want to double check your program evaluation with the Academic Advising Center to make sure that ALL of your credits for both your major(s) and your minor(s) are as you expect them to be.
Academic Advising -- The Academic Advising Center Advisors are trained to look over your Program evaluation and make sure you are meeting all of your credential requirements, and to spot any problems. They however, will not always know the nuances of every program, and so sometime a dialogue will need to be opened up between them and the unit if a question arises. As CCI is a minor and not a major at the moment, we do not have a designated advisor, however these advisors that is assigned to Wilkinson College, and has had experience with CCI matters is the following:
Heidi Choi -- Specialist advisor for Creative Writing, English, French, History, Peace Studies, Philosophy, Political Science, Religious Studies, Sociology, and Spanish majors
Dina Bartoloni Mai -- Specialist advisor for Art, Art History, and Graphic Design majors
