NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Economics 1 has maintained its title as the most popular undergraduate course for a third consecutive year. With a total enrollment of 635 students, Ec 1 tops its nearest rivals by over 100.

Four courses not among last year's leaders have joined the top ten. Soc Sci 1, Comp Lit 166, English 123, and History 169 replaced Fine Arts 13, Music 1, Soc Sci 4, and Nat Sci 3. Fine Arts 13 took the largest drop, falling from fourth to twenty-first place.

However, only 70 of the 845 courses offered by the Faculty of Arts and Sciences contain over 100 students. In 57 courses, there are only two members, while 89 classes have only one student.

Gen Ed A, a required Freshman course, tops the entire list with 1446 members.

Rankings of the top ten courses are Ec 1, 635; Hum 2 and Math 1a, 526 each; Hum 5, 483 Soc Sci 1, 459; Comp Lit 166, 430; English 123, 364; Chem 1, 356; History 169, 345; and Government 1b, 339.
