The 有料盒子视频 Faculty Senate passed the following at its Meeting #132 on October 31, 2005:
MOTION:
=======
The Faculty Senate moves to amend the 有料盒子视频 catalog "Table of Substitutions: non-University of 有料盒子视频 institutions" (page 31 of the 2004-05 catalog):
EFFECTIVE: ImmediatelyRATIONALE: The purpose is to align credit for transfer courses from out of state more closely with university core-curriculum requirements. Currently, transferring students receive core credit for taking courses elsewhere that do not approximate content required in the core curriculum. The proposed changes will achieve greater consistency between the experience of general-education requirements for students starting their studies at the university and those transferring from out of the state system.
The central component of the intellectual experience at the university is the core curriculum. It is possible to achieve a better correspondence between the content of the core and the courses selected to substitute for core courses without making the curriculum into a procrustean bed.
