 -----Original Message-----

From: Christian, Robert R

Sent: 2/21/02 9:13 AM

Subject: EHST2110/2111

 

To all,

 

I support the proposal that EHST 2110/2111 be a general education course in the natural sciences and provide information and opinion on it below.

 

I write for 4 audiences:  the biology faculty, the authors of a recent petition, the instructor of EHST 2110, and the Chair of the University Curriculum Committee.  I hope that all share my comments with others and that the Curriculum Committee will see my comments.

 

This message is divided in 4 parts:

1. an introduction of my background and interests.

2. a summary of the logic of the decision making and its consequences.

3. an attached file of the petition introduction with my editorial comments.

4. suggestions to each group.

 

1. I supported the proposal as a member of the Academic Standards Committee and spoke for it in the meeting.  As many of you know, my PhD is in microbiology but I teach a number of ecology courses. In my distant past I taught community health.  I consider myself one of the most qualified individuals in the College of Arts and Sciences to teach such a course.

 

2. The logic of the arguments seem to come from two directions within a hierarchy. 

 

The authors of the petition approach the issue from the top down.  The reasonable assumption is that natural science courses for general education should be taught by faculty in the natural science departments.  But exceptions are allowed by the University.  If not, we wouldn't be doing this.  One exception already is Introduction to Biological Anthropology.  Exceptions should receive extra scrutiny, but I think what has happened here is that the scrutiny has been biased. Consider the following:

1. The authors of the petition focus only on what they consider negative features of the course.  The petition does not seem to provide a balanced perspective for the reader to make an informed decision. Appropriate documents like the proposal itself, a syllabus and a special letter addressing general education needs were not included.  Thus, it is a political instrument rather than an educational one.  It is designed to mobilize a constituency.

2. There appears to have been no attempt for the scientists to contact the instructor of the course to determine the other perspective.

3. There are no suggestions as to how the course might be altered to make it acceptable.  Instead the course is to struck down, period.

 

An alternate view would be a bottom up perspective - what is appropriate to the student regardless of the prefix.  This, I think, is the way several in the Academic Standards Committee felt.  This view was well expressed by Barnie Kane during the Committee meeting.  One asks if the course would provide a reasonable set of knowledge about science and its issues and applications to freshmen and sophomores.  Would it help them to make informed decisions (e.g., vote with better knowledge of the world around them)?  My answer is yes.

 

Hierarchy theory would suggest that both sets of logic are incomplete. A merging of the two seems appropriate.

 

3.  My comments on the petition are embedded in it.

 

4.  Suggestions

To the Biology faculty.  Consider what I have said and revise your position if you wish.

 

To the authors of the petition.  Share what I have said with your faculty, rebut it as you wish, but allow the faculty to have a more complete story before signing the petition.

 

To Dan Sprau.  Consider the real concerns of others in developing a plan that works for the best of the students.

 

To the University Curriculum Committee.  Do what you think is best.  Consider allowing compromise if appropriate.

 

Thank you for allowing me address this issue,

Robert R. Christian

Professor

Biology Department

Dear Steve,

 

I was unable to attend and speak at the University Curriculum Committee meeting yesterday due to a meeting of the Arts & Sciences Curriculum Committee at the same time. In our meeting, the resolution passed without dissent by the A&S Curriculum Committee in opposition to EHST 2110/2111carrying natural sciences general education credit. Furthermore, the resolution requested that I, as chair of the Arts & Sciences Curriculum Committee, and Dean Sparrow speak in opposition to this course when the UCC presents its committee report to the Faculty Senate.

 

Thank you for your help.
