Reason for Change	2 years ago, the course was titled Old Testament History and Ideas. The course regularly filled. Some thought that title privileged a Christian interpretation. So the alternate title was proposed. Enrollments nose-dived, perhaps because students had little idea what the course was about. The new title and description are expected to be less confusing.
