Delete the following courses: UCC and Senate Approved
Course
Title
CS 101
Critical Thinking with Computers
CS 280
Workshop on Computing System Environment
CS 281
Workshop on Programming
CS 380
Tutorial Methods on Computing
Rationale: These are inactive courses that we do not plan to offer in the future.
KINESIOLOGY
Add Restriction to the following courses:
Courses:
KINE 200, 201 UCC and Senate Approved
Restriction
Enrollment restricted to Kinesiology and
Pre-Nursing majors
KINE 202 UCC and Senate Approved
Enrollment restricted to Pre-Kinesiology
and Kinesiology majors
KINE 204 UCC and Senate Approved
Enrollment restricted to Pre-Kinesiology
and Kinesiology majors.
Rationale: Enrollments in these classes are at maximum each semester and we cannot
accommodate students wishing to take them just to gain extra units. All KINE students must take
these courses so we need all seats to go to KINE students. If we get to the point where we can
manage our enrollments better, we may be able to lift these restrictions in the future.
Recommended Preparation Change for KINE 300: CAPC APPROVED THROUGH C-2
FORM. UCC and Senate Approved (with additional P-2 forms.)
Current:
Proposed:
Recommended Preparation: MATH 115 and/or None
PHYS 101
Rationale: A C-2 is under review at CAPC to make MATH 125 and BIOL 177/178 enrollment
requirements, as well as change units to four (4) to add a formal lab component. In the
meantime, would like to remove this recommended preparation. When the C-2 form is
approved, it will supercede this change.
Title Change for KINE 302: UCC and Senate Approved
Current:
Proposed:
Sports Medicine
Care and Prevention of Athletic Injuries
Rationale: Change title so that it conforms to a standard class title across the country.

KINE 316
Enrollment restricted to Kinesiology majors
Rationale: This is a required class for Kinesiology majors in the Health Science Option and
a popular upper-division major elective for our students but they have had extreme trouble
getting seats without any type of enrollment restriction (other majors enroll).
Add Restriction to the following course: UCC and Senate Approved
Course:
Proposed:
KINE 336
Enrollment restricted to Kinesiology majors
Rationale: This course was previously approved for BB credit, but became problematic
very quickly when our own Kinesiology majors could not get seats to fulfill their graduation
requirements.

Grading Mode:
Credit/No Credit with report in progress

Rationale: This description is less restrictive and more descriptive of what students
actually do. We are removing the prerequisite for KINE 326 since students need faculty
approval anyway, which allows the faculty member to make the decision when students
are ready for KINE 495. The CR/NC with RP option allows us to avoid having to issue
Incomplete grades for students who have not quite finished their hours at the end of the
semester (with incomplete contracts)…this happens quite often and will save faculty a lot
of work.
