C. Graduate Studies (To put requirements for mathematics programs in the appropriate sections.  To move section for clarity.  To update entry requirements.  To provide a more precise description of restricted status.)

D. Graduate Certificate in Gerontology (To make curriculum consistent with Guidelines of Association for Gerontology in Higher Education.)
