Tuesday night this email conversation occurred between the professor I worked with for my cognitive science major proposal and me:

Haha, I thought Ann had already told you! I told her she should send
the official notice to you and that I would just congratulate you
after the fact. I figured she would have told you by now. I would
have sent a more informative notice if I had known you still didn't
get the word!
Yes- the committee approved your major, and you will be Beloit's very
first Cognitive Science major :) Ann will probably be sending you an
official notice at some point soon :)
I didn't say anything on LiveJournal/InsaneJournal because I didn't want to put it as a gratitude until I got the official notification from Ann (Dean of College). Then Wednesday morning another IDST committee person congratulated and I was going "Thanks, but I still haven't heard from Ann!"
So I sucked it up yesterday afternoon and emailed Ann, asking about the congratulations and all that, and she said an email to me was on her to-do list and she'll cc the registrar, too.
( 42 minutes ago, look what popped up in my inbox!! )
YES!! I am officially, officially a cognitive science major!!
