The committee approved catalog revisions submitted by the Accountancy Department:
ACCY 473 credit hours, addition of equivalent courses to satisfy the MAS Phase One
core, and changes to restate graduate course prerequisites to textual descriptions. (See
pages 1-6 of 9)
OMIS 338
A revision to the prerequisite for OMIS 338 was approved. (See page 9 of 9)
B.S. in Business
Administration
Discussion continued from the last meeting on a proposal which would restructure the
business administration major. Three emphases would be available: general business,
international business, or entrepreneurship. After lengthy discussion, a motion to approve

College Senate--strategic view and resource dimension for the program--with further
discussion to take place on the composition of the major.
MGMT Items
C. Mooney attended the meeting to answer questions from the committee related to the
new course proposal, MGMT 327. After discussion, the committee approved the new
course, its inclusion as an elective in the organizational management emphasis, and
revisions to several management course prerequisites. (See pages 7-8 of 9)
