All undergraduate degree programs and courses offered by the University are under the academic sponsorship of the faculty and are implemented under academic policies and student rules established by the University Faculty Senate. The Senate Committee on Curricular Affairs approves or rejects all course and curriculum proposals submitted by the various departments, colleges, and other appropriate units of the University. This committee also oversees the University General Education Subcommittee, the University Writing Across the Curriculum Subcommittee, and the Cultural Diversity Subcommittee. Associate degree candidates take a similar array of courses, but fewer credits. In addition to General Education, Writing Across the Curriculum and Intercultural and International Competence are enhancements approved by the Senate for baccalaureate students.
