WIC matters: Vicki has offered to meet with HSTS faculty regarding
the Bac Core review of their WIC courses in order to clarify issues
before their documents are submitted for Bac Core Committee review.
The WIC Advisory Team will be meeting soon to discuss the possibility
of using the senior thesis to replace the required WIC course for some
departments. Vicki is working with the requesting departments to
encourage involvement in the WIC training by faculty and/or to explore
ways the comprehensive WIC components could be included in the senior
thesis approach.
-
Discussion of the Enrollment 2007 Design Team Report: Committee
members agreed that BCC response to the draft is most fitting regarding
section "C.1.b" (page 6). WE will request the Bob Bontrager attend the
next meeting of the BCC to outline his vision of this section, and the
proposed interface with the BCC. Committee members are asked to review
the report in advance of the next meeting.
-
Courses from community colleges desiring bac core status: The committee
declined to review the requests and agreed to send the proposals back because
they had not indicated which requirement they wanted to fulfill. Courses
with the same number as our courses are automatically accepted for bac core.
- What do we review this year? To be determined.
TO DO's:
Mary - invite B. Bontrager to the next meeting; contact absent committee members
Members - review Enrollment 2007 Design Team Report draft and explanatory response by Bob Burton.
