| COM 100*COM 100 is a zero-credit advising seminar that provides a small and informal setting for first-year students to get questions answered, learn about Newhouse majors and opportunities, University processes such as registration, and interact with a Newhouse faculty member. The faculty member leading the seminar will serve as the student’s Newhouse faculty adviser for the first year or two, until the student declares a major and chooses a faculty adviser in their major department. While there is no grade given for COM 100, there are three short assignments on personal media habits required for COM 100 that tie in with a student’s grade for the university-wide course, FYS 101. By the end of the semester, first year students should be able to recognize their responsibilities as a student and be familiar with the characteristics of successful college students; be acquainted with extracurricular activities, going abroad, and other opportunities to get involved; know where to go for help (at Newhouse specifically); and, have an understanding of their academic requirements.
