ATTENDING: Ed Buckley, Terri Frongia, Kris Futrell, Jim Rose, Joan Scarborough, Rosemary Ward, Austin Arata
Guests: Andrea Proehl and Micca Gray
1. Minutes of September 13, 2001
Approved with correction: Kris Futrell was in attendance.
2. Duplicate AA/AS Degrees
Kris Futrell presented a proposal from the Majors Committee to allow duplicate degrees if:
- the student meets all requirements for graduation plus twelve units in residency beyond the previously awarded degree and;
- the student has completed an approved major different from the major fulfilled for the degree previously awarded. EPCC concurred with the proposal. It will be routed to the Academic Senate for action.
3. Associate Degree "Majors" Update
The process for approving majors locally before forwarding them to the Chancellor's Office is taking longer than expected because many of the outlines for the courses in the proposals are out of date. (The Chancellor's Office will not accept out of date course outlines.) We will still be able to implement the policy in the Fall of 2002, but it is likely that all the majors will not be in the printed catalog. The suggestion of the Majors Committee is to note in the catalog that the majors are on our website. Bill Turner will assist in putting the majors on the website.
4. Implementation Date for General Education Area "I"
Andrea Proehl and Micca Gray urged that this requirement be adopted in Fall 2002 rather than Fall 2003. There was discussion about the feasibility of doing this, and whether the original date should stand to allow other departments to propose courses for the requirement before it is implemented. Rosemary Ward will bring the matter to the attention of the Academic Senate.
5. Review of Institutional Goals
The current goals were reviewed and two minor changes were suggested. Ed Buckley will bring them to the attention of IPC. He also noted that EPCC would be reviewing the recently completed Academic Affairs Educational Plan in the near future.
