University of Utah to Offer Degree Program in Ethnic Studies

The Utah State Board of Regents has approved the establishment of a degree program in ethnic studies at the University of Utah. Previously, students could take ethnic studies courses but could not major in the discipline.

The program will include component sections of African-American, American Indian, Asian/Pacific American, and Chicano studies.
