Add to electives in Coastal Planning and Development and in the Urban and Regional Planning Emphases: PLAN 3041 Computer Applications in Planning. Discussion ensued about how the changes “enhance the quality of outcome assessment of our program”, as stated in the justification, and whether or not the results of outcome assessment were used in that determination. Batie moved approval, Hudson seconded. Motion was approved unanimously.
III. Jim Toppen and Leslie Pagliari presented changes to BS in Industrial Distribution: 1) change name of IDIS 3780: Industrial Warehousing to Warehousing and Materials Handling and add spring offering; change offering of IDIS 3795: Distributor Sales to spring 2) New courses IDIS 3785: Global and Value Logistics, IDIS 3800: Transportation Logistics, and IDIS 4802: Distribution Research 3) Removal of 12 hours from core and addition of the three new courses as well as ITEC 4300: Quality Assurance to the technology curriculum 4) Addition of 6 s.h. to cognate area, replace MKTG 4352 with “whatever FINA course is in the Business minor” and add MGMT 3202 (editorial change). Hudson moved to approval all four items together, Batie seconded, motion passed unanimously.
IV. Under A.O.B., Reaves reported that, at the meeting of the General Education Assessment Committee, it was announced that only 35-40% of ARBs had “closed the loop” as of December, and that new ARBs would be due in August. It was hoped that the UCC’s enforcement of the requirement to use outcome assessment as part of the justification for curriculum changes would help increase this percentage
Also under A.O.B., Knickerbocker reported that no decision had been reached as to whether or not prefix changes and new cross-listings approved by the Restructuring Committee would be brought before the UCC. The committee reached a consensus that the Chair should keep them informed of any change, that it was desirable that a solution be found that would upholding the UCC’s role in the approval process, and that if none was forthcoming by the next Senate meeting he should register the UCCs displeasure with the situation during his report.
There being no other business before the committee, the meeting adjourned at 3:20.
Respectfully submitted,
Dale Knickerbocker, Chair, UCC
