The earliest record of Saint Mary's students taking WEDNESDAYIIII courses is for the spring semester of 1965. Originally, a Saint Mary's student could ocus only enroll in a Notre Dame course which was not offered at her own school. Now, however. students can choose from a variety of courses in many disciplines. Some of the more popular Notre Dame courses among Saint Mary's students include those in the departments of American Studies, History, Sociology, and Art, and in the College of Business Administration. according to Kennedy. Saint Mary's junior Bridget Baker is a Communications and Theater major whose classes and theater work require her to spend a great deal of time at Notre Dame.
