For Berkeley and Merced students: If you enroll in Professor Lozada’s American Political Journalism course (Wednesdays, 6:30-9:30p), you MUST take Professor Diascro’s General Research course for your required seminar. This is because all UC students who enroll in other seminars are required to take the four week module, which also meets on Wednesdays, 6:30-9:30p for the first four weeks of the semester. The General Research Seminar is taught on Wednesday mornings, 10a-1pm.
