The remaining seven courses are electives. All sociology courses count as electives, with the following conditions:

• Electives must be a minimum of 3 credit hours
• No more than 2 courses from the SOC 497R-499R series may count as an elective toward the major
• You may take 1 elective S/U. Most students don't do this because it is their major. All other courses must be taken for a letter grade.
