----------------------------------------------------------
Chrm. Stennett then presented the Category
II document for the Senate's review.
President
Becker noted that the Category II document is
primarily for the Senate's information, but
that questions, comments, or motions would be
entertained.
V President-Elect
Scanlan, on behalf of Prof.
Kermit Rohde, Psych., moved (82-394-9) that
Psych 435 and 446 be deleted from the list of
graduate courses listed on page 88 of the
Category II document; seconded.
Prof. Rohde was then allowed to speak on
the proposal and supported the motion by stating that these courses, which had previously
been taught as restricted enrollment undergraduate courses, had had their enrollment
limitation removed.
This resulted in a
greatly increased enrollment which, in the
absence of prerequisites,
is impossible to
control, he alleged.
He also stated that the
quality level could not be maintained under
these circumstances and, thus, that they
should remain undergraduate courses.
1/
vSeveral attempts were made to frame motions
which would express sympHathy with the principal, or point, that Prof. Rohde was making,
but none was perfected.
Sen. Stamps, Ed.,
and Sen. Dickinson,
H.Ec., both expressed
reservations about not having these courses
available as graduate options.
~A motion to table the motion was defeated.
Sen. Doler, CLA, moved (82-394-10) that
motion 82-394-9, to delete Psy 435 and 446
from the list of Graduate Courses in the
Category II document, be postponed to the
December 2 Senate meeting and made an order
of business under ~eports from the Faculty.'
Seconded and passed.
Sen. Leman moved to accept the entire list in
Category II, with the exception of the two
Psych courses just discussed; seconded,
carried.
(82-394-11)
The meeting was adjourned
at 3:51 p.m.
