Prerequisites for Material Logic & Rhetoric

Logic II not a prerequisite for Rhetoric

Neither Traditional Logic II nor Material Logic are prerequisites for the Classical Rhetoric Course. There are review assignments for both of the programs in Classical Rhetoric that help to apply some of the concepts in the logic program to the rhetoric course, but they are only a supplementary oart of the program.

For an adult who is self educating, is the Traditional Logic series a prequisite to Material Logic (it states in the catalog that Material Logic can be an intro course for the older student... I want to make sure I'm reading that correctly.).

Also, could the Rhetoric course be taken without having completed any of the logic courses? Could Material Logic and Rhetoric be studied concurrently, or do you recommend doing them in order?

My goal is the rhetoric course, and I'd like to get there as efficiently as possible without skimping on proper preparation. Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Robin
