about the inclusion of foreign languages?
3)      How many courses, credits were you assigned in the College Option?
4)      What type of courses are you placing in the college option?
5)      What courses are you placing in the flexible core?
6)      If you have 4+ credit FL GEN ED classes how are you approaching the issue?
