@annwank, sometimes figuring out how to fulfill all the general graduation requirements and major requirements is difficult and confusing.
Ideally, students would get detailed guidance on how to plan their schedules appropriately from their colleges. But we don’t live in an ideal world. And if the student messes up, it’s the family that has to pay for extra classes or extra semesters.
Many students welcome a parent looking at those requirements and seeing how their course selections match up. Two heads are better than one. And I don’t see anything wrong with that.
