Comment: Please complete question #4

ACC 686: Advanced Taxation of Corporations and Partnerships new course proposal
ACC 687: Tax Compliance, Research and Policy new course proposal
Comments on ACC 686 and ACC 687: Question #4 is not completed again. Course numbering
throughout the paperwork is inconsistent and does not reflect the cover letter. No course topics
or schedule included on syllabus.

passes 4-0-0
MST Master of Science in Taxation new program proposal
Comments: In paperwork, course revision to ACC 584 is referenced but we are unsure
whether that has passed through the system. Course numbering for new courses needs to be
fixed throughout the paperwork.
Motion to approve with comments (Angell, Dove second)—Motion passes 4-0-0
DS 250: Introduction to Data Analysis for Business new course proposal
DS 251: Business Statistics for Decision Making new course proposal
Comment: It says in paperwork that if DS 250 is not approved for Gen Ed, then the course will
not be offered. Is this what you meant to indicate in the paperwork?
