Business Items

The Service Learning Consent Agenda was presented by Gayle Hudgins and
Andrea Vernon. There were three new course designations and 16 renewals.
Each course was reviewed by 2 or 3 Service Learning Advisory Council
Members. The items listed below were approved.

The Science and Math Items appended below were approved.

Several Guests (Professors Len Broberg, Terry Weidner, Dan Spencer, Nicky
Phear, and Deena Mansour- Mansfield Center Associate Director) joined the
meeting at 2:20 p.m. in support of the Vietnam Study Abroad Courses. Professor
Spencer provided an overview of the holistic learning experience and addressed
the questions asked by the subcommittee. A spreadsheet was viewed that detailed
the breakdown of contact and out of classroom hours. Learning also takes place
on bus rides and during meals that are not listed on the spreadsheet. Students are
required to keep a journal and field notes. These writing assignments have
different end goals. The Journal requires students’ observations and critical
reflections. The field notes are geared toward scientific research. Deena Mansour
and Terry Weidner explained that the experience is a joint effort with the US State
Department and Can Tho University. This course is a true reflection of the
University’s global mission.

The consent agendas (appended) presented by Susan Caro, the General Education
Committee Chair were approved.
The Committee is also working on an assessment pilot project with general
education courses in Science and Math. It has also been asked to consider a
simplified program to alleviate some of the frustration of Veteran Students.

The ENST Vietnam Travel Seminar courses ( ENST 427 Society, Economy and
Environment of the Mekong Delta and ENST 437 Climate Change Effects and
Adaptation in the Mekong Delta) were approved with one abstention.

GPHY 313 & 324, the field courses offered by Northwest Connections were not
approved. Two members were in favor, four against, and one abstained.

The Schools Subcommittee has not yet confirmed requested changes to BMKT
207, Overview of Marketing. The program is looking into revising its
introductory course that would cover some of this material. One suggestion is to
offer an additional experimental offering of the course to avoid creating a new
course and then removing it.
Adjournment
The meeting adjourned at 3:45 p.m.

New course
After these 3 new courses were
approved by ASCRC last
Tuesday, I noticed that the
proposer had forgotten to enter
the prerequisites for these
courses in e-Curr. Since then,
the prerequisites have been
approved by the Science & Math
Subcommittee.
