(From the meeting of November 8, 2012: The course deletion, course revision, new course, and three
program revision proposals were Unanimously Tabled as a Package. There is no rationale given for reducing the
credit hours for MUSC274. There is no rationale for the 1 credit hour for the two MUSC1xx courses replacing
the MUSC235 course. The three program revision proposals do not present the current and proposed programs.
The MA program revision should explain why the 100 level course is relevant.
