General Education
November 3, 2004
Approved Minutes

Present:  Johnson Afolayan, Ron Nickerson, Warren Sandmann, Dick Liebendorfer, Jim Rife, Kellian Clink, scribe

We discussed several  proposals for inclusion as Gen Ed offerings:

1)    Anthropology 280.  Proposed for inclusion in Categories 7, 9, 11. : The proposal was tabled pending clarification from the department on two issues.  Gen Ed. policy indicates that a course cannot be in more than two categories, the department needs to limit its request to two categories.  The committee would also like the department to specifically explain how the course content meets the goals and outcomes for the relevant Gen Ed category(ies).  Members also observed it is difficult to accomplish all the outcomes for both categories 7 and 9 in one course.  Dick will follow-up with the department.

2)    History 160.  Proposed discussion of history course postponed until Gretta can join us.

3)    Military Science 252. Proposed for inclusion in Category 5.  The proposal was tabled pending clarification from the department.  The committee would like the department to specifically explain how the course content meets the goal and outcomes for Category 5.  Johnson will follow-up with the department.

4)    Music 121.  Proposed for inclusion in Categories 1C, 6 and 7.  The committee would also like the department to specifically explain how the course content meets the goals and outcomes for the relevant Gen Ed category(ies).  . Dick will follow-up with the department.

Respectfully submitted,

Kellian Clink
