From the Chair of the College Senate Curriculum Committee
We encourage departments to complete revisions requested by the College Senate Curriculum Committee for proposals from spring and fall 2012 and spring 2013 that have been “accepted pending revisions” (APR) so that they may be finalized for approval and forwarded to the Academic Affairs Office.

Please note: Program submission routing sheets (majors and minors) must be printed on yellow paper, and course submission routing forms must be printed on blue paper. The Senate Office will not accept routing sheets unless the proper forms are submitted on the correct color paper. Please check with your school’s associate dean for details.

All forms can be downloaded from the College Senate website Curriculum Committee page, under Forms and Templates. Please make sure when submitting a course revision to the Senate Office that the correct “old” version is included in both hard copy and electronic files. Any courses or programs that were recently sent to the College Senate Office will be reviewed by the CSCC  in fall 2013. The CSCC does not meet during the summer and will reconvene in fall 2013.
