Title: AP Language, Computer Courses Cut
Body: From http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/story/2008/04/03/ST2008040303977.html AP Language, Computer Courses Cut In Significant Overhaul, 4 Underenrolled Classes Won't Be Offered After 2008-09 By Daniel de Vise April 4, 2008 The College Board told U.S. teachers in an e-mail yesterday that four underenrolled Advanced Placement courses will be eliminated after the 2008-09 academic year in the first significant retrenchment of the college preparatory program in its 53-year history. The courses being cut -- Italian, Latin literature, French literature and computer science AB -- are among the least popular in the AP portfolio. Italian, introduced three years ago, has attracted 1,642 students and 305 teachers nationwide, one-fifth the number who expressed interest before it was created, AP officials said. Courses in French and Latin literature serve 2,068 and 3,771 students, respectively. The most popular AP subjects, including U.S. history and English literature, reach hundreds of thousands of students each year.
