Current prerequisites/corequisites:
Prerequisites: NUR 208, 209, 215, 216
Prerequisites or Corequisites: NUR 255, SOCL 100/SOC 100C, MATH 109/MA 109C or MATH

Prerequisites or Corequisites: NUR 255, SOCL 100, MATH 109 or MATH 116, Arts &

4.
Rationale for the revision of prerequisites/corequisites:
Removal of the “C” designation provides consistency for all School of Nursing programs within
the College of Health and Human Services. “C” courses are designations reserved for certain
University College courses. The change from Category B elective to Arts & Humanities elective
is consistent with the new Colonnade terminology.

Identification of program:
1.1
Program reference number: 245
1.2
Program title: Hospitality Management (A.S.)
1.3
Credit hours: 64
2.
Rationale for the program deletion: After several years in existence, the enrollment goals for
the A.S degree program were never met. Students are more interested in the B.S. degree rather
than the A.S degree and once they became aware of the B.S. degree they immediately enrolled in
it. Additionally, if a student initially enrolled in the A.S. degree, they would typically transfer to
the B.S. degree without completing the A.S. degree first. After analyzing the data on enrollment
and graduation rates for this program, we have decided to terminate the program.
3.
Effect on current students or other departments, if known: none. For the few students who
wish to finish the program, they will be allowed to. There are no courses that will be dropped as
the result of deleting the program.
