4. Announcements a. Assistant Provost – Chanaka Mendis - None b. Academic Planning Council (APC) – Irfan Ul-Haq – This announcement led to further discussion of what different groups are doing to create a definition of a program or sub- program. Faculty Senate has an ad-hoc committee that includes Tera Montgomery, Laura Anderson, Kory Wein, Colleen McCabe and Terry Burns. They’ve been charged with coming up with a clear definition for what constitutes any sort of program less than a major, such as minors, emphases within majors, concentrations, credentialed certificates, and certificates. While there are particular compliance issues involved, there appears to be no common definition or minimum/maximum number of credits. Chanaka Mendis and Karen Stinson said the Graduate Council had a similar working group (that they are both a part of) with a similar charge for graduate programs. c. Assessment Oversight Rep & Dir. Gen Ed/Asses. Coordinator (AOC) – Shane Drefcinski - None d. University International Education Committee (UIEC) – Vacant - None e. Other – Irfan said that we need a better set up for the agenda and documents so that the flow reads better, also that all attachments migrate to the new meeting folder after every review – new business to consent, so that if there is a discussion we are not hunting for the information in past folders or meetings. Tera agreed to see about how she can help in restructuring the information.

5. Adjournment @ 4:45pm
