New Business:

Calendar set for 2004 Summer School

Jackie Spears explained to CAPP that the Calendar Committee had set the 2004 summer sessions for two five-week sessions and one eight-week session. She stated that faculty wanted standard class times set for summer school and suggested that in the fall CAPP develop standard times for the 5-5 and 8 week sessions. Gunile DeVault suggested the committee wait until the decision on the calendar for '04-'05 is made.

2004 Intersession

Gunile DeVault reported that the 2004 Intersession was approved as a two-week Intersession by the Board of Regents and could not be changed. The committee had approved a three-week Intersession at the May 21, 2003 meeting. After some discussion it was recommended that Betty Stevens check with the Provost office concerning the dates of the 2004 Intersession.

Non-Standard Class Times Petitions

Gunile DeVault informed the committee that the policy for Non-standard class times does not allow the committee to give permanent approvals. The committee must review each semester. Loleta Sump reminded the committee to review each semester because the room usage can change. It was suggested that Loleta should come to the meetings when Non-Standard Class Time Petitions and ORCs are reviewed. The committee decided to indicate approvals that would be 'one-time-only' from the 'on-going' approvals with an asterisk.

Non-Standard Class Times Petitions
  • Karen Pence presented petitions for FSHS 524 and FSHS 541. Both were approved as requested.
  • Betty Stevens presented a letter requesting standard times for the Evening College to be from 5:30-7:55 p.m. and 8:05-10:30 p.m. for 8 week courses. This request was approved.
  • MANGT 531 and MANGT 623 were removed from being tabled May 21, 2003 and discussed. Mike Perl had visited with the Provost concerning these courses. The Provost and the committee had the same concerns regarding scheduling a class for more contact hours than necessary to allow faculty to cancel classes. Ray Hightower moved to deny the request. Motion seconded and carried. Julie Katz abstained from voting.
Outside of Regular Class Testing (ORC)
Registrar Office Items

Monty Neilsen and Gunile DeVault briefly announced the following:

  • KATS telephone access has been discontinued.
  • The Registrar's purple calendar is now available through Printing Services for $1.
  • The committee was given a draft of the policy for Final Exams and asked to review the policy with their courses.
Proposal to Replace the UGE Program

Ray Hightower distributed a draft of a proposal to replace the UGE program. He said the College of Engineering planned to submit the proposal this fall. He asked the committee members to read through it and contact him with their comments or suggestions.

Adjournment:
The meeting was adjourned.
