IV.                DISCUSSION

 

1.       Curriculum & General Education Charter- Feedback from the Academic Senate

 

The Curriculum & General Education charter was tabled by the Academic Senate during their February meeting. The item will be on the March agenda. There were a few different issues with the charter including 1. The length of meeting time, 2. Wording of the SLO alignment piece, and 3. Potentially sun setting the SLO/ASC committee which has been charged with reviewing SLOs. Several committee members commented that the current 1.5 hour meeting time per month works for Curriculum, and the meeting time shouldn’t be reduced back down to 1 hour.

 

2.       Update of C-ID Verification to Associate Degrees for Transfer (ADT)

 

A memo from the Chancellor’s office was attached to the packet, and this was reviewed. Effective July 1, 2015 all ADT proposals (new, substantial, and non-substation changes) submitted to the CCCO for review must have a C-ID status of “Approved” for all courses entered on the TMC template were a C-ID descriptor is listed.
