TDD # 801-321-7130. January 9, 2008 MEMORANDUM TO: State Board of Regents FROM: David L. Buhler SUBJECT: University of Utah - Interdisciplinary Master of Arts Degree in Asian Studies, Effective Fall 2008 – Action Item Issue The University of Utah requests approval to offer an interdisciplinary Master of Arts Degree (M.A.) in Asian Studies effective Fall 2008. This program was approved by the institutional Board of Trustees in September 2007. Background Responding to the need for graduates with expertise in Asian Studies, the University of Utah is proposing an M.A. in Asian Studies which will be the first in the state and the only such program in the intermountain west. The proposed Asian Studies program will fill a large and growing need for expertise on Asia in government and the private sector. Governor Jon Huntsman has opened new markets in China and is working to do the same in India. Not only will Utah benefit from these markets but there will be a need for graduates with Asian expertise to fill positions related to expanding markets. The proposed graduate program will serve students as preparation for further academic studies at the Ph.D. level or in pursuit of careers in government service, international law, international business, and education. Once the graduate program is successfully established, it may be readily combined with a Master’s in Business, Law, Public Health and other professional degrees. The Asian Studies M.A. degree, while new, builds upon 131 undergraduate courses and 50 graduate courses already taught in thirteen departments (Anthropology, Architecture, Art History, Economics, History, Languages and Literature, Law, Philosophy, Political Science, Sociology, Theatre, Management, and Finance) in six colleges (Humanities, Social and Behavioral Science, Fine Arts, Architecture, Law, and Business). With over forty faculty members already involved in the Asian Studies program the University has ample faculty and curricular resources for the M.A. degree. The current staff for the Asian Studies program is sufficient to support the new degree. 1 The benefits to students and the University are significant. The program will provide important new career opportunities for graduates. It will also significantly enhance the regional, national, and international profile of the University’s Asian Studies program. It will facilitate advanced research and teaching on Asia by giving faculty the opportunity to teach graduate students and guide student research in their areas of expertise. Finally, as graduates of the program enter sector jobs in business, government, education and numerous other fields in the region, their expertise will help to enhance Utah’s international reputation and economic ties with Asia. The proposed two-year Master’s program expects to start with six new students and grow to 15 in the fifth year for a total of 87 students in various stages of their graduate programs. All students must complete third year level proficiency in an Asian language. Policy Issues The University of Utah consulted with Utah State University, Weber State University, and Brigham Young University about their undergraduate programs in Asian Studies and received support from these institutions. No issues were raised. Commissioner’s Recommendation The Commissioner recommends that the Regents review the request by the University of Utah to offer an Integrated Master of Arts in Asian Studies, raise questions, and, if satisfied, approve the request. ________________________________ David L. Buhler, Interim Commissioner PSC/DLB Attachment 2 Academic, Career and Technical Education and Student Success Committee Action Item Request to Offer an Integrated Master of Arts in Asian Studies, Effective Fall 2008 University of Utah Prepared for: David L. Buhler by Phyllis C. Safman January 9, 2008 3 SECTION I: The Request The University of Utah requests approval to offer an interdisciplinary Master of Arts Degree (MA) in Asian Studies effective Fall 2008. This program was approved by the institutional Board of Trustees in September 2007. SECTION II: Program Description The Master’s degree in Asian Studies, the first ever offered in the intermountain region or Utah, is a flexible interdisciplinary two-year post-baccalaureate degree providing advanced language study and area studies education. Drawing on existing faculty and curricular resources across the many departments that comprise the B.A. program in Asian Studies, the program requires a total of 30 credits: 8 three-credit courses, a thesis (6 credits), and a minimum of third-year proficiency in an Asian language. To ensure the coherence of their graduate work, students will be required to have both a regional or country concentration and a disciplinary concentration for their program, developed in consultation with the program advisor. Regional concentrations currently include East Asia (China, Japan, and Korea) and South Asia (India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, and Bangladesh), but will expand to include Southeast Asia as courses are develop in that area. Disciplinary concentrations will not be limited to departmental categories, but can involve creative and practical interdisciplinary combinations of courses that fit with the student’s career goals. Purpose of Degree The Asian Studies Program at the University of Utah is undertaking a major expansion and restructuring to meet changing student demands and the growing need for expertise on Asia within the University and wider Utah community. Three new initiatives are being proposed: the restructuring of the B.A. degree in Asian Studies; the creation of a new M.A. degree in Asian Studies, and the establishment of a new Asia Center which will house these degree programs. The arrival of Michael Young as President of the University of Utah has heralded the beginning of a new era for Asian Studies on this campus. As an expert on East Asian law, President Young is deeply committed to the development of Asian Studies and in his inaugural address announced his plans for the establishment of an Asia Center which will be a major focus of the upcoming capital campaign. He is also pursuing a major initiative to internationalize the University. The restructured B.A. in Asian Studies and the new M.A.

  • The Touch of Human Kindness: Women and the Moral Center of Gravity”
    “The Touch of Human Kindness: Women and the Moral Center of Gravity” Elder Bruce C. Hafen and Sister Marie K. Hafen © 2001 Elder Bruce C. Hafen and Sister Marie K. Hafen. All rights reserved. Today's culture is losing the plot about marriage, motherhood, and family life. As our Primary children sing "Follow the Prophet," they sing this verse: "Now we have a world where people are confused. If you don't believe it, go and watch the news."1 Church members aren't immune from this confusion. A Latter-day Saint mother who was called to work with young single adults was expecting a new baby. One by one, several of her young women privately asked her how she really felt about having another child. In a spirit of deep womanly trust, they asked questions that reflected honest anxiety about being bound to husbands and assuming the burdens of motherhood. She told us she was surprised to hear concerns like this from young women who were believing, active Church members. In response, she invited each young woman to do what she had allowed only her husband and children to do. She tenderly placed one of their hands on her abdomen and invited them to feel the baby's movements. Then, with her hand on theirs, she lovingly taught each one that, despite the relentless demands, she had discovered an exquisite happiness through being married and having children. These young women drank with deep reassurance from her wellsprings of testimony. But today, people without mentors like that can be very confused.

The vocational classes, scattered throughout Utah and Wasatch counties, were centralized in mid-1941 under Central Utah Vocational School. Following the war, only the dogged determination of its administrators and school district officials kept the school from dissolution, and it became a permanent state-supported institution in 1947. In 1963, to reflect its evolving status and mission, Central Utah Vocational School became the Utah Trade Technical Institute at Provo. In 1967, the school was named the Utah Trade Technical College at Provo. By 1987, it became Utah Valley Community College, and by 1993 it had evolved into Utah Valley State College.
