FINAL
FALL 2002 CURRICULUM REPORT
(Passed, as amended, by the University Senate on
December 4, 2002)
OVERVIEW
The body of this report consists of two major
sections: Proposed Course Changes for Fall 2003 (unless stated otherwise) and
Other Curricular Matters. Policies and definitions governing group
and multicultural status are listed in the main body of this report. Policies and definitions governing group and
multicultural general-education requirements are under Other Curricular
Matters.
Grading,
repeatability, sequence. Unless
indicated otherwise, courses may be taken either pass/no pass or for letter
grades. P/N only or Graded only
indicates that all students must take the course as specified in the bold
print. Separate grading options for
majors are bracketed in this report and appear in UO class-schedule notes; they
are not printed in UO catalogs. R after course credits means that the
course number may be repeated for credit.
“Sequence: after the description means the courses must be taken in
numerical order. Changes in grading
option, course description, pre- and co-requisites, conditions of
repeatability, and instruction type are not necessarily included here.
IMPORTANT
NEW POLICY
The Committee on Courses will no longer accept the old
manual course proposal forms. The
electronic forms are available on the CAS web site, http://casweb.uoregon.edu/scripts/index.asp. Arrangements for
access may be made with the Lexy Wellman in the CAS office. Future proposals
submitted on old forms will be returned, without review, to academic
departments, schools, or colleges.
LOOKING
AHEAD
The Committee on Courses offers the following reminders:
ü If there
is any question that a proposed new or changed course might duplicate coverage
in an existing course from another department or school, the proposing
department must gain written confirmation that the other department has been
consulted and does not object to the new or changed course.
ü According
to University Senate legislation, courses submitted for group-satisfying status
must be submitted to the Inter-College General Education Committee. CAS departments submit them directly to that
committee; academic departments in professional schools and colleges submit
them to their own dean’s office, which submits approved proposals to the
Inter-College General Education Committee.
That committee reviews all group-satisfying proposals before passing
them on to the UO Committee on Courses.
ü Proposals
for undergraduate group-satisfying and multicultural courses must include
written justification, regardless of whether they are new or existing courses.
ü Courses
may not be both group-satisfying and repeatable for credit.
ü Proposals
for new courses should be accompanied by full syllabi.
ü For 400-/500-level
courses, both proposal forms and syllabi must state explicitly the substantive
and measurable differences in type and amount of work for the two levels.
ü Changes
in University Senate-approved UOCC reports take effect the following fall term
unless requested by a department and stated otherwise in the report.
ü At its
May 1998 meeting, the University Senate agreed that the University Committee on
Courses should include in its reports courses that should be dropped because
(1) they have not been taught for three years, and (2) the department provided
no reasonable explanation of why they have not been taught or whether they will
be in the future.

University Committee on Courses

2003: Publication

(The changes in this report will first appear in

MOTION
The
University of Oregon Committee on Courses moves that Proposed Course Changes
for Fall 2002 (unless otherwise stated) and Other Curricular Matters be
approved. If approved, changes are
effective Winter 2002 unless stated otherwise.
Changes in this report will first appear in the 2003-2004 catalog.
