OLD BUSINESS
a)
Discussion Category I Proposal discussion: BA, BS in Education - L. Friedman
W. Loveland did not receive the budget from the School of Education until April 14, so the Budgets and Fiscal Planning Committee has not had opportunity to fully review and produce a report. They hope to meet before next Thursday, April 24, and get report out to Council.
M. Dalton clarified different aspects of the proposed double degree Education Program.
B. Allen noted library costs still require an understanding of where revenue will come from.
The Council expressed concern that the MAT program might not have been an adequate part of the conversation. L. Friedman would like S. Stern and the School of Education to respond to C. Pratts questions in her letter of 3/18/03. The Council also recommended that there be a discussion with teacher preparation faculty to get them on board.
Discussion
tabled until report received from the Budgets and Fiscal Planning
Committee. This will be first on the
Agenda next time the Curriculum Council meets.
