PLANETARIUM Director: John Sohl, SL 204A Telephone: 626-7907 The Planetarium, featuring a 30-foot hemispherical dome, is used for instruction in undergraduate astronomy classes. It is also a science education facility featuring programs of interest to elementary students, secondary students, and the general public. For the general public, a program featuring some topic of current interest in astronomy is given one evening a week. Any teacher wishing instructional materials or wanting to set up an appointment for a class visit should contact the Director of the Planetarium, or the Director of the Center for Science Education, 626-6160. PRE-MEDICAL PROFESSIONAL PROGRAMS For information call Ms. Bonnie Donaldson, Secretary, Department of Zoology, SL402, 626-6165. 626-6168 626-6167 626-7486 626-6587 626-6587 626-7486 General Requirements: Students pursuing one of the following programs should satisfy the pre-professional requirements while completing an appropriate degree within the College of Science. Students should work closely with both their pre- professional adviser and their academic major adviser. Since course loads are typically heavy, and requirements and application procedures vary among post-graduate programs, students should plan their academic strategies early and with full information.
