The "typical" entering grad should take 700 (a 1 credit proseminar involving
class attendance only & no outside reading), 773 (intermediate theory),
a statistics course (360, 361, or 362 depending on background), and some
course in an area of interest to you. If you have prior graduate training
or are otherwise atypical, consult with the graduate advisor. Graduate
students MAY NOT take courses numbered 100-299. You will need to make
special arrangements if you want to take elementary language courses numbered
below 300.
