Supplement this summer to include all curriculum approved
by the Board this school year. No programs or courses may
be published until approved by State.
Update to Course Outline required. The District Business
Discipline Committee is beginning the process.
It was noted that even if students are following the

Communication Requirement for California State
Universities (CSUs).
The following were discussed:
 The proposed resolution was read (in dropbox).
 An e-mail from Jennifer Shanoski, Student Learning
Outcomes and Assessment Coordinator in Merritt
College, was also read. In the e-mail, Shanoski listed
a number of concerns regarding the move from
tasksteam to CurricUNET META. (in dropbox)
 The resolution was revised. (in dropbox)
 Since there was no longer a quorum by the time the
resolution was revised, the CIPD decided to vote on
