These groups contain all current students who have declared a particular major, and are used by faculty/departments to e-mail students. Only faculty/staff can send to these groups.
The information pulled from PeopleSoft can include up to three majors for any student, and only students who are eligible for the current or future semesters are included in these Majors Groups. The groups do not differentiate on when the major was declared, just that the student is still a current (or future) student. Declared minors are also maintained in a similar fashion, It is possible that a recent graduate may still be included in the list.
The membership of these groups are updated nightly.
