Rationale: Along with ESPA 2707, ESPA 2706 replaces ESPA 2705: An Introduction to Hispanic Culture and Civilization. Currently, there are no 3-credit courses offered at the 2000-level. The split makes the course available to more students who only need 3 credits. Furthermore, a growing number of nursing students have requested the split in order that they can take one in their last year before their preceptorship. The courses can be taught by regular faculty on a regular rotation schedule.
