Agenda
Spring 2019

  • We reviewed the Spring 2019 on April 6th but did not finish Session C.
  • Believe the reason we did not finish Session C was because the first day of class we set for Session C forced exams for Session C to take place while Session A was still in progress
  • Decided to change Session C first day of class to begin the same day as Session J
    • Start - March 4, 2019
    • End – April 19, 2019
    • Exam – April 22, 2019
    • Grades – May 2, 2019
  • Scheduling pattern
    • Should you label the last day of class is a Friday, if in reality the last day is a Thursday?
      • Possible addition to Calendar Considerations
  • Spring 2019 session dates were confirmed
  • Calendar considerations states that time be added for drop, withdrawal and change of major deadlines that fall on a Friday
  • Group would like guidelines for matriculation dates for Enrollment and Academic Calendar in Calendar considerations to be reviewed
    • Registration opens for currently enrolled students
    • Enrollment process for new, returning, and transfer student
