If it wasn't in the same article as the diversity credit I don't think many people would complain about getting rid of redundancy and letting individual departments set the standards.

That's my thinking. At first it sounds like a big deal, but to me it didn't make a lot of sense to have some of the mandated math classes I had in college for a fine art degree. With the career I went into (journalism) the only math is how man inches your story is.
