  2. Informational Items
    1. VP of Instruction: Veronique Tran
      Mainly want to address the ongoing discussion regarding the Core Curriculum and the course to be composed for the Core. Dr. Tran and Dr. Wilcox are working to create the Core Curriculum Committee. This committee will be tasked with developing a process for Core Curriculum Assessment but also have a role in vetting proposals for Core Curriculum development. To clarify, when a course is proposed for the Core and it goes through the Division for approval (representation of the minutes) and then it goes to the Dean and finally to the CAAC. This is the Institutional process, but there is a whole package of materials that needs to be developed for it to go to the Coordinating Board. The College submits one time per year. We have until June 30th of each year to submit. Dr. Tran proposes no later than June 1st so that we can collect all the proposals and send them up in one package which then would be in affect the next Fall. We could have an earlier deadline for submission, but we would not get an answer for about two months. We need to decide when we want to designate as the deadline for the Institutional submission. The other part of it is that all the pieces that constitutes a package, we need to have a check list to make sure all supporting documents are in place.
      Discussion:
      • Could have a submission date of May 15th – April is the last CAAC meeting prior to Fall, which makes it ideal.
      • Create a Rules and Calendar of submission deadlines
        • November being the “Hard” deadline for Catalog Submissions
        • April 15th being the “Hard” deadline for Core Submissions
        • Update the Bylaws so that there is Institutional memory
        • The initial vetting would go to the Core Curriculum Committee and then to CAAC

          To clarify, CAAC approval does not mean that now you can add it to the catalog as Core.
          The Coordinating Board is the final decision maker.
