Looking up courses by Mode of Thinking in the Searchable Foundations list? PRO TIP: Upperclass students should NOT use the "@BC" option

If you're using the searchable Foundations list as a junior or senior, be careful when searching for a Mode of Thinking 

Pro Tip: Be sure you're using the second list in the dropdown menu.  As a junior or senior, you are still permitted to take your Modes at either Barnard or Columbia and should use the search option with just the name of the Mode, without @BC (e.g. "Quantitatively and Empirically, not "Quantitatively and Empirically @BC") -- this will return both Columbia and Barnard classes.


The first list, which has @BC after the name of each Mode (e.g. "Quantitatively and Empirically @BC"), returns only Barnard courses -- and is what new first-years and future students will need, as they need to complete all the modes of thinking at Barnard.  


If you're already registered for a class, it should appear correctly in your degree audit based on your class year.
