CLEP Policy: Jeanne Fraker presented a proposal for development of a University policy on CLEP credit from the Undergraduate Academic Advising Group. She will make available packets of information about the CLEP subject tests to relevant departments. Members should discuss this policy with their constituents and identify any additional information they need to act on this proposal. The goal is to have an acceptable policy to forward to Faculty Senate for action before the end of this academic year.
