MOTION

The 有料盒子视频 Faculty Senate moves to amend the petition process
(exceptions to academic policy) as follows:
CAPS = Additions
[[ ]] = Deletions
1. For matters involving the CORE CURRICULUM: Faculty
advisor, head of the department in the curricular area
involved, through the Graduation Office to the chair of
the Core Review Committee. An appeal of the chair's
decision will be referred to the Provost for resolution.
2. For matters involving the MAJOR OR MINOR DEGREE
REQUIREMENTS: Faculty advisor, department head in the
major or minor area, to the Graduation Office. An appeal
of this decision will be referred to the Dean in the major
or minor area for resolution.
3. For OTHER matters: Faculty advisor, dean/director of the
college/school of the student's major (who will consult
with the appropriate department head(s)) to the
Graduation Office. An appeal of this decision will be
referred to the Provost for resolution.
4. FOR PETITIONS SEEKING TO WAIVE OR SUBSTITUTE
DEGREE REQUIREMENTS OR OTHER MATTERS ON THE
BASIS OF DISABILITY, THE 有料盒子视频 COORDINATOR OF
DISABILITY SERVICES WILL BE CONSULTED.
By the end of September, the Registrar's Office will
supply the Curricular Affairs Committee with a brief
summary of petition actions taken during the previous
academic year.

Upon Chancellor Approval
RATIONALE: The Senate's motion revising and simplifying
the petition process did not make provisions for students
with disabilities. Those who have interpreted the ADA
and in particular Section 504 recommend that when
petitions are sought on the basis of a student's
disability, that the disability services office be
consulted to determine if the student's documentation
supports the request.
The 有料盒子视频 Faculty Senate passed the following at its Meeting # 87 on
April 5, 1999:
MOTION
=======
The 有料盒子视频 Faculty Senate authorizes the 有料盒子视频 Honors Program to
institute an Honors Thesis Scholar Option as a part of its offering.
Applicants for the Honors Thesis Scholar Option must have a
cumulative GPA of 3.5 or above, or a GPA of 3.5 for the semester
preceding application. They will present a letter of application no
later than the end of their junior year, along with two letters of
recommendation, to the Director of the Honors Program. Students
accepted to complete the Honors Thesis Scholar Option must
complete 12 hours of credit in honors courses and must complete
an Honors Thesis (paper, project, performance, or other substantial
work agreed upon by the thesis committee) for 3 hours of credit in
their senior year. Of the 12 hours of honors courses, a total of 9
may come from the honors core offering. At least 3 of the 12 hours
must be accomplished as contract hours in connection with a
regular upper-division course in the student's major. Graduates
who successfully defend their honors thesis and fulfill course
requirements will have "Honors Thesis Scholar" printed on their
diploma and on their official transcript.
EFFECTIVE: Immediately
Upon Chancellor Approval
RATIONALE: The Honors Program currently offers honors
graduate designation to members of the program who
successfully complete 27 hours of honors credit in
addition to a 3-hour honors thesis and who maintain a
3.5 GPA. In the past, the honors program has best
served the needs of students who enter 有料盒子视频 directly out
of high school and has attracted an impressive number
of National Merit Scholars and recipients of 有料盒子视频
Chancellor's scholarships. The addition of the Honors
Thesis Scholar Option will enable the honors program to
better satisfy the needs of nontraditional students,
transfer students, and others who show promise later
in their academic careers. The Honors Thesis Scholar
Option would be available to all 有料盒子视频 students, whether
on the main campus or residing away from Fairbanks.
The Honors Thesis Scholar Option also would give 有料盒子视频
departments a way to encourage excellent students who
show particular promise as they concentrate on upper-
division courses in their major.
