Class Subsections: A class subsection includes any subsection of a course, such as laboratory, recitation, and discussion subsections that are supplementary in nature and ar e scheduled to meet separately from th e lecture portion of the course. Undergraduate subsections are defined as any subsections of courses in which degree - seeking undergraduate students enr olled for credit. As above, exclude noncredit classes and individual instruction such as dissertat ion or thesis research, music instruction, or one-t o-one readings. Each class subsection should b e counted only once and should not be duplicated because of cross -listings.
