Here's Level I in the same template as Levels II and III, including the Spanish link line. One thing to watch: **ENGM V01R** (this page) and **ENGM V01A** (the college-level composition class) look very similar. Students searching the schedule could pick the wrong one. The course names next to the codes should help, but you may want to mention it to the Welcome Center staff.
