What comes first
dibs has no class page for SOC SC 230A, in any term it holds, that it can state prerequisites from, so it cannot say what comes before it. A page read while a class still reads Tentative does not count.
Counted in courses rather than quarters: dibs does not know which of them a department lets you take together.
From the registrar's catalog
Lecture, three hours; fieldwork, two hours. Part one of two-part series. Students learn the principles, ethics, and methods of community-based research; and the place and purpose of scholarly inquiry. Working in teams, students conduct small-scale research projects in collaboration with local community organizations. Work is divided fairly among team members with each team member contributing based on their skills and talents. Teams work closely with the instructor and organization contacts on all aspects of the research design, execution, and data analysis. Teams learn all relevant background information about the community organization being worked with; develop a research design, data collection methods, and protocols; recruit participants; and engage in data collection. Letter grading.

Seats over time in Winter 2027
How each lecture has filled since dibs first saw it. This course runs 2 lectures; the legend under the chart picks one.
A dot is a reading where something moved: the seat count, the status, or the waitlist.
What a flat run means, and where a line starts
Flat between dots means it did not drift, it held and then jumped, and a line starts when dibs first saw that lecture rather than reaching back before it existed. A lecture that has never moved draws a flat line across the whole window, and one with two or three readings draws a line joining them, which is too few to read a trend from.

How readings and alerts work
Dated seat counts can be available even when hourly check history is missing. Gaps do not show whether seats changed between observations.
Seat counts show the last successful read, not live availability. Refreshes can be delayed by request limits or upstream interruptions. Watched sections receive priority, but an hourly update for every section is not guaranteed.
The registrar can change a seat count between our checks. Alerts depend on dibs detecting an opening and completing delivery; a quiet watch does not prove that no seat opened. Check the registrar before enrolling.
