A. CIS has become a seperate major, requiring a seperate sign-up procedure. So has Computer Science Education, by
the way.

C. Technically, the coursework is built so that one can finish the degree a semester sooner than the formal time-frame. I could, for example, opt to finish the three-year CS degree in two and a half years, quite easily. (Or in two years and a hefty summer schedule, which became a non-option due to certain summer military activities.)
