in Communication with emphasis on health communications; Thompson moved for
approval; Allred seconded. Linda Kean and Linner Griffin represented the

annual report.
3)
Discussed the need to identify contradictory or otherwise inappropriate
language in the various documents, including the Faculty Manual, related to the
curriculum planning and review process. This should be done over the summer so
that in the fall (2005), the newly reconstituted Committee can be presented
with the results and be well enough informed to take what action is necessary.
4)
Discussed the need to develop ideas about the financial realities of starting new PhD
programs.
