BUS 772's number already in use; new number is 575

Hi everyone,

At the September 2011 Senate meeting, The Beedie School of Business submitted a New Course

Proposal form for BUS 772-2 Negotiations. This course number is already in use, so I contacted

the department asking for another course number. They suggested 575.
