Opening Remarks
- The main purpose of the meeting is to discuss two generalists in TC Central be given override authority rather than having TC Central personnel or the student have to call, meet or email department heads for overrides.
- The second item discussed was the flow charts for Math and English.
Scott
Harvey explained—
- Two generalists only and they won’t have access to SRPO
- The overrides would be for transient students only, and only if they met the criteria for prerequisites.
- If there are any questions, department heads would be contacted.
- This would cut down on students having to contact department heads.
- Sue Dacus will train the two generalists—Kandice Dacus and Sisireia Simmons.
- Transfer evaluations will stay with Marilyn Angoli
After
Scott explained the above procedure, only one comment was made saying that
these procedures were not what they thought.
There were no objections, discussion, or vote taken. We moved to the next topic—flow charts for
Math and English.
Andrea
presented the flow charts for Math and English.
There was discussion and suggestions on how they should appear on paper
for least confusion. Tasheka Johnson
strongly urged we remove the majors from the top of the flow charts as the
majors’ course requirements change often.
Keri Catalfomo stated that the Accuplacer flowchart is confusing and
gives only half of the information.
Andrea
Barnett will make the suggested changes and send them via email to the
committee to review and make further suggestions.
There
being no further business, the meeting was adjourned.
