An exploration of the nature of religion through: 1) the history of the study of religion, 2) exposure to varying methods and ways of approaching religious phenomena, and 3) consideration of accounts of religious experience.
As printed in the 1978–79 to 1994–95 calendars, read by OCR; the scanned page is the original. Later calendars (1995–96 on) aren’t on uwloo.

Another title: Contemporary Science 1, probably a different course under the same number (or a misread scan).
An examination of some of the issues and developments in contemporary science (e.g., molecular biology, astrophysics, etc.) at a non-technical level. The interaction between science and society will also be discussed. Extensive skills or background knowledge in mathematics or science are not necessary. Open to first year or upper year students. (Students registered in Science or Engineering may not take this course for credit.) No prerequisites. 3 lectures per week, fall term.
