Cold Spring Road

Cold Spring Lane used to be a narrow, two-lane roadway. Its intersection with Charles Street was once guarded by a sound-actuated traffic light installed to accommodate the sparse traffic on Cold Spring Lane. Students, familiar with the system, could shout into the sound receptor and suddenly change a green light to red, forcing motorists to halt.

Visit Student Planning for a list of the courses offered by the History department in Fall 2023. Students wishing to register for a closed (full) course must visit the Academic Advising Website and submit a course override request form (the link will be on the page under Fall 2023 Course Override Requests) requesting an override. Please do not submit your request directly to the course instructor or to the Department Chair. All course overrides are reviewed by the department chair and are only approved if there are extenuating circumstances. The override request will not be processed if there is a time conflict with your existing schedule, you do not have 6th course permission from your advisor, or if there is a financial hold on your account.
