RATIONALE:
The number change better reflects the content of the course and the level of difficulty of the material. In addition, the General Science program noted if we
change the course number to 200 or higher, that this course could count towards the General Science major, which geology views as appropriate.

GEOL 252 Evolution of the Earth
MUAP 402 Applied Music - Performance
RATIONALE:
I. Under the current system, applied lessons still must be scheduled manually. Students are required to complete a course add form, submit it to the administrative assistant, who in turn sends the completed forms to the registrar. The above changes will enable the Registrar to bring the registration procedure for applied lessons in line with current college procedures.
II. There is frequent confusion during registration with the current applied lesson numbering system. As a result, students register for incorrect course numbers and/or credits. Revising the course prefixes and titles will clarify the applied course sequence.
III. Additionally, there are also frequent errors made when listing applied lessons on student transcripts causing undue stress and extra work for students and advisors. Revising the course prefixes and title will clarify the application of the course sequence on transcripts.
IIHLSC 350: Women and Health: Witches, Harlots, & Healers
RATIONALE:
We, in Health Science, believe this course is a good course to add to the interdisciplinary program because it is taught from different disciplinary perspectives. Women’s health is primarily studied from health science, history, psychology, and sociology. However, these four dominant perspectives also require the discussion of such topics as economics, politics, women studies, and social justice. For example, in using a historical view, we discuss and analyze the history of women’s health and health related issues (e.g. women’s role in health care). In using the psychological perspective, we look at mental health and mental health related topics, particularly focusing on the history of women’s mental health, the psycho-sociocultural issues of diagnostic categories, and the biopsychosocial issues of body image, eating disorders, and alcohol and other drug problems. In using the sociological view, we incorporate the issues of societal roles, sexism, and oppression in understanding women’s health from the past to the present.

IHENG 251/IHHGS 251 Literature of the Holocaust
RATIONALE:
The course number as listed by the English Department is being changed to correspond to the same offering in the proposed Holocaust and Genocide Studies program. The prefix is also being changed, again to correspond to the new prefix adopted by the Holocaust and Genocide Studies program. The description has been slightly altered to accurately reflect which authors may be included in class readings (i.e. 2004 Nobel Prize winner Imre Kertesz.).
HLSC 265 EXERCISE SCIENCE AND APPLICATION
RATIONALE:
The Health Science Department believes the information obtained in HLSC 265 would be of benefit to the student at the 300-level. Students in the program are heavily demanded in the science component of the curriculum at the 200 level (e.g. BIO 230, BIO 232, HLSC 214 and HLSC 215) and it was agreed upon by the department that this would allow a greater dispersion of the science requisites for the program. Furthermore, it is the only fitness/exercise component to the program and the shift to the upper level would allow for greater preparation and synthesis of material (from the 200-level) that will increase the depth of investigation and assurance of course and program outcomes.
IHFILM 261 Intro to Film History
RATIONALE:
Current course number (IHFILM 271) overlaps with the course number for Film major (FILM 271).
EDUCSP 665 Internship in Special Education II
RATIONALE:
This course update reflects the new course numbering system for the M.Ed. Special Education certification program. The course was previously at the 500 level for use in the Post-Baccalaureate Special Education (PB SPED) program. The PB SPED program will be deleted and this course will be utilized in the certification component in the new M.Ed. Special Education certification program. The 600 level course numbering system is used for all graduate level courses.
