Continuity, limits, and the derivative for algebraic, trigonometric, logarithmic, exponential, and inverse functions. Applications to physics, chemistry, and engineering. Prerequisites: high school algebra, plane geometry, trigonometry, and analytic geometry. Honors section available first semester. (Gen.Ed. R2) [Note: Because this course presupposes knowledge of basic math skills, it will satisfy the R1 requirement upon successful completion.]

This course examines value in the US healthcare delivery system. By introducing value as a concept we take on the issue of how to improve outcomes and the cost of healthcare delivery. We will think about how to measure value and understand the various stakeholder perspectives of value. We will examine ways to improve the value of healthcare delivery from the perspective of health systems, providers and policy makers. The notions of improvement, innovation and reliability to improve value will be core concepts discussed.

This course explores the influence of the mass media on the social world, particularly the media's impact on audiences. We will investigate various approaches utilized to determine if, when, and how media influence viewers, listeners, and readers. We will examine this issue from both scientific and cultural studies perspectives. Some of the questions we will consider include: How does television violence impact society and individuals? Can watching sex on television and film lead to teenage promiscuity? Are political advertisements and news coverage creating a more or less informed voter?
