Adequate consideration and consultation, regarding program terminations and name changes, are documented in attachments.  Note that item 1, however, regarding a program name change from “AT-BA: Athletic Training and Rehabilitation Studies” to “Clinical Healthcare Studies ”, along with minor changes in electives, has been sent back to the UCC for further consultation prior to Senate consideration.  Items 2 & 3, then, in the Summary of Undergraduate Curriculum Proposals, are pertinent to this petition.  Therefore, be it resolved that the University Faculty Senate approves the University Committee on Curriculum's program changes submitted on August 30, 2019, subject to exclusion of item 1.

Curriculum proposals that require Board of Regents approval, such as program name changes and terminations, are handled before all other curriculum proposals in the annual curriculum cycle. This year the UCC and the GCCC both met during the first week of classes (August 26th) to begin our curriculum reviews. The changes must be approved by the Faculty Senate before they can be moved to the BOR. Because the proposals have to be considered at three different meetings in the BOR process, we have to start right away in Fall in order to make the schedule  for the 2020‐2021 catalog.
