NOTE: Students who pursue a concentration in Philosophy can also choose a minor in Religion and students who pursue a concentration in Religion can also choose a minor in Philosophy. These students cannot, however, use a single course to count towards both the concentration and the minor. Taking a course (like PAR 392 and PAR 393) once cannot be used to satisfy both the Philosophy and Culture and Seminar sections.
