to the Curriculum Work Group (Margaret Burdette, Galen DeHay, Scott Harvey,
Lynn Lewis, Sarah Shumpert, and John Woodson)
6. Deadlines
John would like all forms sent
electronically, as well as via paper.
November 4, 2013 is the final deadline for all changes. Each division representative needs to discuss
deadlines for their division with their dean.
He suggested noting the date when the representatives receive changes
for their division. All forms need to be
given to Galen by November 26, 2013.
Janet Fuller noted that the Pharmacy Tech
program will now be under Health Education instead of CCE, beginning Fall 2014. John suggested that Janet speak with Chris
McFarlin, who r developed the Paralegal program. He may be of assistance with
issues that may arise.
7. Next
Meeting
John will schedule small meetings,
lasting approximately 30 minutes each.
He will contact the Committee when he schedules the next meeting. The next meeting will probably be in the next
few weeks.
