I just read on University of Oregon’s website that they have new undergraduate and graduate major in Children’s Behavioral Health–the first in the nation. It sounds interesting: https://childrensbehavioralhealth.uoregon.edu

Can other CC folks please post here with about other new programs or majors at the schools your kids are looking at. Thanks!

Duke has changed its journalism certificate to a Minor.

https://dewitt.sanford.duke.edu/academicprograms/jam/

“As of fall semester 2023, Journalism & Media is now a minor at Duke. The Journalism & Media minor replaces the Policy Journalism & Media Studies certificate, which the DeWitt Wallace Center has been offering for the past 20 years. The Journalism & Media minor serves students aspiring to become journalists, as well as those seeking to pursue other private and public sector media-related careers.“
