Approved Minutes of November 21, 1996 Meeting of the UUCAPC (correction:
present was David Steenbarger) .
In a four and one-half hour meeting the committee:
(1) Reviewed 124 Course Modification (46) and Inventory (78)
Requests:
COBA -- 28 CECS -- 7 COSM -- 16 COLA -- 73
(2) Reviewed 14 resubmitted Course Modification and Inventory Requests:
COSM -- 2 COLA -- 2 COBA -- 10
(3) Reviewed proposed program changes as follows:
(i) WAC Program changes submitted by the WAC Committee
(ii) Department of Geological Sciences Admission Changes
(iii) COBA Program and Graduation Changes.
Committee actions on all of the above are attached as memos to individual
colleges and units.
The committee scheduled the next UUCAPC meeting for January 17, 1997
at 1:30 p.m. in 032 Rike Hall.
COBA:
Approved Modification and Inventory Requests:
MGT 490. EC 320, ACC 201-3 202-3 203-3, ACC 321, ACC 322, ACC
407, ACC 408, ACC 421, ACC 422, ACC 431, ACC 441, ACC 443, ACC 451, ACC
481, MKT 302, MKT 416, MKT 421, MKT 461.
Also, the committee approved the resubmitted and revised versions of
MS 201, MS 306, MS 435, MIS 100, MIS 410, MIS 430, MIS 480.
Note: On the MIS 400 resubmission, the proposal was tabled by the committee
upon the concern by the CECS regarding the possible overlap and/or duplication
with an existing course. Hopefully, this will be resolved shortly. I'll
inform you at such time.
Returned for further COBA action:
ACC 203 -- the committee recommends inclusion of a new title
for student record.
ACC 300 -- recommend rewriting of the new prerequisite (more comprehensible).
ACC 328 -- recommend rewriting of the new prerequisite (more comprehensible).
MGT 410 -- recommend inclusion of a new title for student record.
MKT 301 -- rewrite (e.g., delete "total field") and change Preq. to
EC 202 and 203.
MKT 303 -- catalog description exceeds university required maximum (also
clean-up 1st sentence).
MKT 435 -- the committee approves this course but urges COBA to re-think
the level of this course. The committee was impressed with the fact that
the COBA has already established this course in reaching out to NONBUSINESS
MAJORS. However, the committee noted that many such students will never
"see or realize" such an opportunity exists being that it is at the 400
level. Perhaps a 200 or 300 level would better serve the student population.
If COBA does not wish to re-think this, then return the proposal and it
will be processed as it stands.
MKT 492 -- recommend changing prerequisite of "majority .. of courses"
to a specific level course or set of courses by course number(s). Also,
recommend inclusion of a new title for student record.
CECS:
Approved Modification and Inventory Requests:
CEG 478, EE 325, EE 436, EE 478, EE 473
Returned for further CECS action:
EE 448* -- catalog description exceeds maximum university length.
CEG 330* -- catalog description exceeds maximum university length. Also,
the committee recommends that the title for the student record be more
descriptive.
COSM:
Approved Modification and Inventory Requests:
BIO 484, MTH 456 (note: after speaking with Dan Voss, I added,
with committee approval, the cross-listing of this course with CEG 478
and EE 478), BIO 106, BIO 107, BIO 194, BIO 360, BIO 466, BIO 482
Also, the committee approved the resubmitted versions of BIO 221 and
BIO 451 -- i.e., with the HPR review and approval.
Returned for further COSM action:
BIO 407 -- the committee recommends identifying prerequisite
courses by course numbers rather than by course titles.
EH 401 -- as with all new course proposals, the committee requests a
syllabus. For a variable topics course, a syllabus for an example course
is usually sufficient.
SM 145 -- catalog description exceeds university maximum length.
BIO 266 --catalog description exceeds university maximum length.
BIO 267 -- catalog description exceeds university maximum length.
BIO 366 -- catalog description exceeds university maximum length.
BIO 367 -- catalog description exceeds university maximum length.
BIO 105 -- the committee continues to express concerns with this course
modification. It feels that the modifications are significant enough so
as to constitute a new course. In this case, an Inventory Request would
have to be submitted with the appropriate syllabus. In addition, the General
Education Oversight and Assessment Committee (GEOAC) has informed UUCAPC
that it did not support this proposal in its previous deliberations. Therefore,
UUCAPC feels that any future re-submissions of this proposal would have
to first be reviewed by the GEOAC for recommendation.
Department of Geological Sciences admission requirements request:
The committee approves this request subject to approval by
the COSM Dean, COSM Curriculum Committee (assuming the COSM requires in-house
Curriculum Committee approval for admission requirement changes), and after
it has be submitted to the Provost . With regard to the latter, the process
for requesting changes of this nature requires that submissions be made
"by the appropriate dean to both the chair of UUCAPC and to the Vice President
for Academic Affairs [Provost]." I have attached a copy of the Process
for your reference. The committee is quite confident that this particular
proposal will not encounter difficulties in following this process. Yet,
we do hope that you and the Department of Geological Sciences understand
that the committee must follow process.
COLA:
Approved Modification and Inventory Requests:
See Attached List Below
Also, the committee approved the resubmitted versions of the
PLS 225 and WMS 200 Course Inventory Requests.
Returned for further COLA action:
URS 423 -- the committee felt that the course syllabus did
not correspond to the course title and decryption. Even though the course
is a variable title course in Issues In Urban Administration, the committee
felt that the syllabus for an example course should be related to "the
administration of urban nonprofit organizations, community development
agencies, and local governments."

** denotes that the committee made one or more minor modifications to
the original request.
WAC Oversight Committee:
Transfer Students Needing GE Credit in WAC:
As you know, the committee recommends adding "and returning students"
after "transfer students" to the WAC proposal. Also, it may be helpful
to specifically state that this proposal is offering a fourth option for
transfer students and that native students would still have the three alternatives
available in the original WAC requirements.
