MOTION: M (Wall) S (Melcher), PASSED: To approve special curriculum proposal from Social Work to change minimum GPA requirement for admission to major (from 2.5 to 2.6)

 

DISCUSSION: 1) Only discussion involved how to specifically denote that the GPA refers to the University overall. Resolved by noting that current bulletin is unambiguous. Therefore, only need to change the GPA number.

 

 

Other discussion: Melcher updated committee on process and progress of Gen Ed Committee’s consideration of gen ed course proposals. Discussed recent UCC actions.

 

Chair Dziengel reminded everybody that Feb 28 is the deadline by which gen ed course proposals are guaranteed to be considered by the GEC.
