BMW Program
Mike Sherburne and Tom Clark presented, and Tom acknowledged Mike/s good work in
putting the proposal together.
Wayne reported that the state is currently implementing CurricUNET. As of today, we
have missed the deadline for a “paper” submission of the BMW Program. Jane noted
that she has not yet submitted the addition of Emphasis 5 to the AA in Liberal Arts.
Tom also has three programs, AS in Electronic Systems Technology and Certificates of
Achievement in Consumer Technology and Industrial Electronic Technology that are
pending state approval. He expects approval any day.
The state’s move to CurricUNET and requirement that colleges receive training before
they can use the system may impact catalog publication.

Changes that need committee discussion
FIRE TECHNOLOGY
Fire Technology 52, Firefighter Safety and Survival, 3 units
Title change from Firefighter Safety and Public Education. There was
discussion on whether the course needs a new number. Bob Buell reported that
the content hasn’t changed significantly, only the emphasis. The state still
accepts the previous version as meeting requirements. Consensus (with one
objection) that the number be retained.

Company Officer, 2 units
Fire Technology 71B, Fire Command 1B: All-Risk Command Operations for
the Company Officer, 2 units
Both contain title, content and prerequisite changes. Kaaren noted a discrepancy
in the relationship of the class hours and typical contact hours. Bob Buell

7.
Good of the Order
Jane reported that the Political Science 10 changes will require re-articulation with CSU.
Because we have linked our American Institutions criteria with CSU, she doesn’t feel
that we should add the course to American Institutions until the re-articulation is
finalized. Consensus was that the discipline should re-submit for American Institutions
in next year’s curriculum cycle.
