Chair Tangedahl called the meeting to order at 2:15 p.m.
The minutes from 11/1/11 were approved.
Communication Items:
ECOS would like ASCRC to draft a curriculum procedure for academic oversight of stand alone / interdisciplinary programs, minors, and certificates. It is likely a workgroup will work on this in the spring. Members should think about the issues. Some concerns include academic oversight of the courses and faculty (in place of unit standards), appropriate commitment for course offerings (in place of academic unit). There should be a clear line of authority for student complaints. If the program has a steering committee, does it assume the roll of an academic unit (accountability)? The Provost should also be consulted regarding the procedure.
Subcommittee chairs should give the curriculum forms to Camie for filing once ASCRC has acted on them.
The Provost approved a new version of cross-listing on the condition that a pilot project is successful. ASCRC will need to choose departments for the project.
.
Business Items: Curriculum Review
Chair Tangedahl asked subcommittee chairs to review the consent agenda that will be presented to the Faculty Senate on
Thursday. Please send correspondence regarding items that should be highlighted at the meeting and notes for reference. In general faculty should be reminded that learning outcomes are required on syllabi.
The following items were conditionally approved from the Humanities. ARAB 301 and 302 were withdrawn. There was some concern about the appropriate academic home for the minor. NAS X 180 Event Planning will be sent back to the department to consider adding academic rigor. Forestry has a Recreation Programming Coures (PTRM 230) that could be used as a sample of a skills with academic rigor. There may also be a course in Entertainment Management. These will be sent to the Department Chair for reference. It was suggested that the course include the history and cultural significance of the Pow Wow.

Concern that course is not in compliance with Compressed

Concern that the course is not in compliance with the compressed course policy. The course seems to
lack academic rigor, assessment does not match learning outcomes.
Department might consider a guideline for academic standards of the bucket course. Course credit is not included in catalog language
Several courses list repeatability number rather than course credits.

Major adjustment to the management major
The Prerequisite Working Group recommended revision to the catalog languge defining satisfatory completion. ASCRC considered the language and revised it as follows:
"Prereq." indicates the course or courses to be satisfactorily completed (C- or better, unless otherwise specified in the course description in the UM Catalog) before enrollment in the course described. Failure to complete satisfactorily the prerequisite will result in the student being dropped from the course.
If credit was earned for a prerequisite through the Advanced
Placement Examination Program, the grade "CR*" signifies satisfactory completion unless otherwise specified in the course description in the UM Catalog.
"Coreq." indicates a course is taken concurrently with the course described. In some cases a coreq may be completed prior
to the semester of the described course.
Executive Director O’Hare will present the suggested language to the Working Group at tommarrow’s meeting. The Working
Group would like there to be a spring review of prerequisite changes. If the review does not take place in the spring, the changes will not make the catalog for another full year. Many departments have expressed an interest in participating in the fall pilot.
There is concern that this will not allow the Registrar’s Office enough time to enter the changes. ASCRC will need to send a communication soon regarding a early spring deadline. The consent agenda must go to the February 9 th
Faculty Senate meeting for approval.
The meeting was adjourned at 4:27 p.m.
