Rationale Currently, most proposed degree changes actually receive little or no scrutiny after they leave a college or school, since further approvals are conducted through the mechanism of a no-protest process that is rarely noticed by the faculty or advisors. When changes do come before the whole Faculty Council, the Faculty Council members may not have the necessary background to conduct a meaningful discussion of details. The proposed committee structure would result in degree plans being systematically considered by representatives of the whole University community. Paper copies are available on request from the Office of the General Faculty, FAC 22, F9500. Amended by the Faculty Council on April 16, 2001.
