* Mostly, only courses with recent syllabi (from 2013 onwards) are listed here. Some (very few) course descriptions without syllabi are also listed. It is often easier to find much older syllabi, but, in the interest of more recent scholarship resources, those are not included here.
* Often, login information is required to view syllabi at many colleges and universities, including: American University, Colby College, Colgate University, Stanford University, Vassar College, Williams College
