This category is a good illustration of how names for course titles would be useful. Add them to the back end of the number, and the courses are organized, but also described. Currently, it's impossible to know the difference between these by looking at the list alone (unless you're a really savvy econ major). Pacman 17:00, 4 May 2007 (EDT)
