Course Descriptions
ASL AMERICAN SIGN LANGUAGE
ASL-331 AMERICAN SIGN LANGUAGE IIThis course expands the principles mastered in ASL I. It provides a more complete understanding of the language as it is used in conversation with an emphasis on vocabulary, grammar, and syntax. It will introduce the use of discourse strategies in ASL including: classifiers, use of space, appropriate choice of register and clear transitions between ideas. ASL II teaches the learners to use cultural protocols, ASL grammar for giving direction, describing family, occupations and attributing qualities to others. This course may not satisfy the foreign language requirements at Le Moyne College. However, this course can be applied toward the language requirements for New York State teacher certification.

LAW LAW
LAW-200 LEGAL ENVIRONMENT OF BUSINESSThis course provides an introduction to the various ways in which laws and the legal system affect the conduct of business. Students will be encouraged to use their understanding of law and the legal system as a tool in ethical business decision making. Some reference to the impact of law in the international sphere will be included.
MTH MATHEMATICS
MTH-110 INTRODUCTION TO STATISTICS I (NO COMPUTER LAB)A data-oriented, applied introduction to statistics. Topics include descriptive statistics, data distributions, random sampling, relationships, confidence intervals and hypothesis testing. Statistical software will be used throughout this course. Prerequisite: Three years of regents- level mathematics. Students may not take both MTH 110 and MTH 111.
MTH-112 INTRODUCTION TO STATISTICS II
This course is a continuation of MTH 110 and MTH 111. Further methods of statistics and their use in life will be covered. It includes: inference for one and two population means, inference for two proportions and two variances, inference for simple and multiple regression, categorical data analysis, analysis of variance, nonparametric tests and logistic regression. A statistical program will be used throughout this course. Prerequisites: MTH 110, MTH 111 or equivalent.

Along the way, students will recognize the link between the development of the musical and societal trends and events. Fulfills Core Requirement(s): Visual and Performing Arts (VPA).
PHL PHILOSOPHY
PHL-110 INTRODUCTION TO PHILOSOPHYAs a writing instructional course, this course introduces students to the practice of philosophy and to some of the central questions, modes of inquiry, and forms of analysis and argumentation that distinguish philosophy from other ways of understanding ourselves and our world. Organized around the themes of "the human condition" and "the examined life", the course engages students in reflective dialogue about central concepts that define the human condition (e.g., knowledge and understanding, beauty and value, justice and community, transcendence and the divine, etc.). By linking rigorous analysis with engaged reflection on the concrete task of living an examined life, PHL 110 exemplifies the core value of Le Moyne's Jesuit educational mission of educating both the hearts and minds of our students. Prerequisite: WRT 101 or permission of the department chair.
PHL-210 MORAL PHILOSOPHY
This course investigates the philosophical foundations of normative ethics in an effort to clarify the status of moral values in human life. Drawing upon classical as well as contemporary texts in moral theory, the course will consider issues such as: What does it mean to be a moral being or a moral agent? Are moral values grounded in human nature, the natural order, the divine? What are the methods and possible limits of reasoning about moral values? Is moral philosophy (merely) descriptive of the practices and values of various groups or can it be prescriptive; can it, that is, tell us what we ought to do? How might we understand the historical development of moral theory and the diversity of systems of value? How might conflicts between these systems of thought be understood, assessed, and/or resolved? Sections capped at 30. Prerequisite: PHL 110 or HON 110 or permission of the department chair.
PHY PHYSICS
PHY-102 NON-CALCULUS GENERAL PHYSICS IIA continuation of PHY 101 with topics selected from waves, electromagnetic theory, and optics.
