course is required for the course to count toward the major as indicated in the
catalog copy.
o
Change the description and prerequisite information in
the syllabus to match the changes in the catalog copy.
o

3220), MPRD 3500 (to COMM 3500)

which they are to be offered.
Action Taken: Linner Griffin moved to approve with changes. Derek Alderman seconded. Motion passed.
(3.) Title Revision Only of Existing Course: COMM 4080
Discussion:

Discussion: MPRD has moved to the

banked, the prefixes should be changed so that the decision to unbank or delete
the classes is within the purview of the faculty in Communication. After the
change is implemented, Linner
Griffin encourages the Communication faculty to review the banked courses and
consider whether some might be deleted. This action can be done via memo.

The School of Communication Honors Program provides an opportunity for outstanding communication majors to do intensive research in areas of special interest. Participation is limited to seniors who have obtained a minimum university and major 3.5 GPA. Students participating in the honors program enroll in COMM 4196 and 4199 in consecutive semesters of the senior year. Students, after consultation with their advisor, are strongly advised to begin exploration and preliminary research of their honors topic during the second semester of their junior year in order to have sufficient time to complete the work. After extensive reading on a topic of the student’s choice, appropriate consultation with a faculty advisor, and approval of a research proposal, the student submits an honors thesis on a topic related to the readings and completes an oral examination covering both the reading assignments and the completed thesis. Students must receive a grade of B or better in COMM 4196 to continue with COMM 4199.

The minor in film studies provides students with an opportunity to study the
history, theory, criticism, cultural uses, aesthetics, and production practices
of cinema. The courses are designed to help students meet the new challenges
they will encounter as citizens and workers in the information age and to learn
how to analyze and engage critically with the visual media that has become a
fixture of contemporary life. This curriculum complements a wide range of
liberal arts majors by teaching students textual analysis, critical thinking,
and writing skills.
This interdisciplinary minor asks students to forge connections between the
discipline of film studies and other disciplines, including literature,
creative writing, rhetoric, music, communications, history, foreign languages,
sociology, and political science, among others. Courses in the minor will
address cinema within its social, political and cultural contexts including an
understanding of how race, ethnicity, gender, religion and class are constructed
through the cinematic image. Courses taken towards the minor must come from at
least three different prefixes (ART, COMM, ENGL, GERM, MPRD, RUSS, SOCI, SPAN,
or POLS). Other appropriate courses may be considered for inclusion as
electives change or upon review by the director. For more information go to:

An institution may satisfy the requirements by providing a link to another appropriate web site that satisfies the requirements of information disclosure such as the institution’s college bookstore, provided that such link is clearly and prominently located on the institution's Internet course schedule or printed course schedule. This is similar to the way many current registration systems interface or link with the college bookstore web sites and the store’s course material database which contains the most up-to-date and accurate information.
