14 courses with the subject BC, each shown exactly as we captured it from the college's catalog, with every element we hold. Where the wording looks broken, that is our reading of the catalog, not the college's text.
BC 1001Introduction to Psychology, however another PSYC
course must be taken in its place. This includes students who elect a Major or Minor in Psychology, as well as non-major students who choose to fulfill the College's General Education Requirements with Psychology. If you choose to take BC1001, the College will also count your acceptable AP and IB scores as 3 credits toward your degree. Further information may be found on the Registrar's website. For students who entered Barnard College before fall 2016, the major distinction is that the College will not give a student credit for AP/IB as well as credit for BC1001. That is, if you enter Barnard with a score of 4 or 5 on the AP/IB and choose to take BC1001, you would not also get three points toward graduation.

ANTH UN3052 The City Jail. 4.00 points. Municipal jails are one of the most impactful institutions of criminal justice in the United States; and yet many Americans do not even know the difference between a prison and a jail. This course will investigate the conditions of mass incarceration in America by centering the municipal jail. Taking as objects of study both the jail itself and the practice of incarcerating people in local jails, this course will combine scholarly work on U.S. criminal justice with a variety of non- academic texts including legal decisions, contemporary journalism, and documentary film. The course is focused on jails writ large, but as we are living in New York City, we will pay particular attention throughout the semester to our own municipal jail system
