Minutes of the Course and Curriculum Committee
for September 26, 2001

Present: D. Bayuzick, S. Haller, M. Gurtman (Chair), L. Johnson, R. Lott, M. Mullen, E. Wilson.
Absent: B. Lewis

D. Bayuzick arrived late.

The meeting convened at 12:05 pm.

Michael Gurtman was elected chair.

The following were approved:
· COMM 362
· COMM 366

The Committee tabled BIOS 420. The Committee discussed whether a discussion hour should count the same as a lecture hour for purposes of establishing course credits. The Committee asked BIOS to review and resubmit the proposal, clarifying how the discussion will be used and presented (presumably as a required component of the course, and hence equivalent to a lecture hour). Also, a description of the course was omitted from the proposal and will be needed.

The Committee postponed consideration of GEOL proposals until next meeting.

L. Johnson will ask program chairs to submit immediately proposals that require approval for the Spring 2002 schedule.

The Committee will meet again on Wednesday, October 3 at 12 noon in MOLN 275A.

Respectfully Submitted,

Michael Gurtman
