back in as prerequ to the AHS 106 course. N.
Proposal approved.
Albert recommended that we add a statement to
ALL Health Sciences program dx pages which says
that students must achieve a minimum of a “C” in
all courses to remain in good standing or graduate
from the program.
L.Soly raised a question about mention of a “red”
scrub uniform in the dx. Apparently JD
Rockefeller Center students (of which some are
ours) wear “Caribbean Blue”. R. Lucki and C. Riter
believed they were supposed to be red. R. Lucki
will check on this, and we will either ask JDRC to
change their color, or remove “red” from the dx
page.
Topic
2nd Reading – M. Kahl
Radiologic Technology, AAS
Discussion
M. Kahl cleaned up mcg’s, moved ENG 101 back to
an earlier semester. Still wants to leave the 1
credit of clinical hours in the summer, will only
cost about $100. Recommended that students be
told up front about possibility of having to pay this
themselves if they’ve used up all their financial aid
by spring. N. Albert had a question about why
Clinical Practice II was 18 lab hours while the rest
were 12. M. Kahl explained that they only have 10
weeks in the summer, so 18 is needed to achieve
enough clinical hours for credit hours. N. Albert
wants notation of that in the minutes so this is
clarified. One correction: on curriculum layout
page (p. 8), 1st year spring semester still says “year
two”. K. Herrington changed on hard copy of
proposal.

1st reading – Alicia Frey for Christina
Sullivan, ORNT 1____
Next Meeting
March 9, 2012, 2:00 pm, PBR
A. Frey presented a proposal to make the
ORNT 199, Financial Literacy and Student
Success a regular course since it has been
offered twice as a 199. She and Christina
have co-taught it. It was offered through a
grant; they would like to offer it as an
elective as part of our curriculum. So far,
the tuition has been paid by the College.
The book is free, and speakers come to the
class for free as well. It is designed for at
risk and financial aid students. Problem
may be that they may not be eligible to take
it if they don’t have electives left to take. It
is letter graded.
We shouldn’t have any proposals next month, but
the committee needs to discuss and approve
recommendations for changes to the forms and pro
cedures for next year. Committee members are
asked to send comments and ideas to K.
Herrington by the end of this month. If possible
she will send out a draft incorporating new ideas if
possible and we can opt not to meet. If discussion
is needed, we will meet one more time this year.
Motion to approve 1st Reading
and waive 2nd: C. Riter, second
V. Slider. Motion carried.
Motion to adjourn: G.
Winland, second N. Albert.
Motion carried; meeting
adjourned at 3:10 p.m.
