Doyungan and Pinson), Catharine Duggan, Benita Flores-­‐Muñoz, Randy Flowers, Elda Garza, Douglas Harley, Brian Hart, Carolyn Mauck, Mendy Meurer, Adelfino Palacios, Tonya Pigulski, Denise Rector, and Walter Thieme. Ex-­‐Officio Members Present: Jasmine Anderson, Dr. David Arreguin, Daniel Fischer, Dr. Jonda Halcomb, Lucy James, Chuck McKinny, and Ken Rosier. Members and Ex-­‐Officio Members Absent: Dr. Zaldy Doyungan, Mario Hernandez, Dr. Donald Pinson; Liz Adamson, Sally Bickley, Dr. Evangeline De Leon, Dr. Steve Gulding, Lenora Keas, Dr. Rito Silva, Dr. Cathy West, and Erika Williams. Guests: Craig Brashears, Gail Dorn, and Jennifer Sramek Call to Order: Dr. Crowson confirmed the quorum, called the meeting to order at 1:34 p.m., and conducted a roll call. Approval of Meeting Minutes Members reviewed the draft minutes for the December 2015 meeting. ACTION TAKEN: Ms. Mauck made a motion, seconded by Ms. Rector, to approve the December 2015 meeting minutes as presented. The motion carried in favor unanimously. THECB Notifications THECB Notifications included state-­‐mandated course deletions by the Art and Drama Department for ARTS 2324, ARTS 2327, and DRAM 1320, 1321, 1323, 2363, 2367. DRAM 2366 had a course title and description change. Ms. James clarified the deletion of DRAM 2367 from the core curriculum list as well. Department of Business Administration Ms. Sramek presented the new course addition, LGLA 1307 Introduction to Law and the Legal Professions. The new course will combine curriculum being taught in two courses, LGLA 1311 Introduction to Law and LGLA 1313 Introduction to Paralegal Studies. All three courses share similar student learning outcomes and textbooks. The consolidation of courses provides students with one additional substantive law class elective of LGLA 1341, 1353, or 2309. The Paralegal Advisory Committee recommended the revisions. The changes also enhance the employment marketability for program students. ACTION TAKEN: Mr. Palacios made a motion, seconded by Mr. Harley, to approve the new course addition, LGLA 1307 effective the Fall 2016. The motion carried in favor unanimously. ACTION TAKEN: Mr. Thieme made a motion, seconded by Dr. Abarca, to approve the course deletions for LGLA 1311 and LGLA 1313 from the catalog effective Spring 2017 and Fall 2016, respectively. The motion carried in favor unanimously. ACTION TAKEN: Mr. Palacios made a motion, seconded by Ms. Flores-­‐Muñoz, to approve the related revisions for the AAS Paralegal Studies degree effective the Fall 2016. The motion carried in favor unanimously. Department of Art and Drama Mr. Rosier introduced the AA Drama degree revisions. Mr. Brashears explained the two Sophomore Drama Electives are now identified as DRAM 2331 and DRAM 2336. The two Component Area Option core electives and the Creative Arts core elective remain as DRAM 1310, DRAM 2361, and DANC 2303. However, the degree plan now specifically lists the identified core courses for those line items. Curriculum Committee Minutes February 12, 2016 ACTION TAKEN: Ms. Flores-­‐Muñoz made a motion, seconded by Ms. Rector, to approve the revision for the AA Drama degree effective Fall 2016. The motion carried in favor unanimously. Division of Arts and Sciences Dean Halcomb reported Senate Bill 1189 requires identification of a multidisciplinary studies associate degree. The THECB requested the identification by institutions of higher education by February 29, 2016. Dean Halcomb recommended the AA Liberal Arts degree identified as the multidisciplinary studies associate degree. Dean Halcomb also presented a clarification to the Life and Physical Sciences Core Elective in the degree plan. Advising and student self-­‐advising issues have occurred such as a student who took a three hour biology lecture course and a one hour geology lab. After discussion of options, the committee recommended the listing as separate line items as follows: Life and Physical Sciences Core Elective (3-­‐0-­‐3) AND Life and Physical Sciences Core Elective Lab (0-­‐3-­‐1) OR Life and Physical Sciences Core Elective (3-­‐3-­‐4) ACTION TAKEN: Ms. Pigulski made a motion, seconded by Dr. Abarca, to approve the AA Liberal Arts degree identification as a multidisciplinary studies degree. The motion carried in favor unanimously. Open Comments Dean Halcomb reported the possibility of forthcoming core course applications by the Department of Natural Sciences for the respective lab components to current core lecture courses.
