    RE Calendar Change M ath 252
    DATE 21 November 2011
    Please find enclosed a course change form for Math 252 Vector Calculus.
    Math 252 and its prerequisite change was approved during the February 2011 meeting of
    Senate Committee on Undergraduate Studies. However, this request was submitted to
    request inclusion of Math 232 or 240 as corequisite, and in error noted removal of Math 232
    or
    240 as prerequisite. Deletion of prerequisite status precludes students from being able
    to register for Math 252 ifthey have completed Math 232 or 240 preceding the semester of
    enrolment.
    Thank you for your assistance and consideration to quickly rectify this situation, given our
    offering of Math 252 during Spring 2012 semester.
    Please contact myself or Ms. Dale Yamaura, Manager, Academic and Administrative
    Services (v: 2-3799; e: math_manager@sfu.ca) as required.
