Policy reviewed and motion below was MSP.
Motion: To amend the language in the original proposal for further review. Warren will revise and send the revised proposal to the UCAP-SMC for review and comments. The revision will address the issues: 1. changing it from four course repeat to repeating any course two times for a total of three times taken; 2. the last grade earned will be official grade earned; 3. violation of the policy will allow course instructors to administratively drop students; 4. two variations of the proposal will be distributed focusing on how to address Withdrawals. Review must be completed by April 25. A special submeet will occur on April 25 to address the revised policy.
