After approval by the offering unit, the appropriate SCCA proposal forms are reviewed and approved by the college curricular affairs committee, noted by the college SCCA representative, approved by the dean of the college, and forwarded to the Senate Office. The college committee should evaluate proposals both academically and in relation to Senate requirements outlined in this Guide to Curricular Procedures . The college committee may approve, reject, or ask for revisions in the proposal. It may also require additional consultation outside the offering unit. The college representative to SCCA, who should also be a member of the college curricular affairs committee or its equivalent, must review and sign all final proposals before forwarding them to the dean of the college.
Administrative approval is indicated by the dean's signature on the proposal.
Following approval by the dean, proposals are forwarded to the Curriculum Coordinator at the Senate Office. The Curriculum Coordinator checks the proposal for compliance with the curricular procedures outlined in the following pages. Proposals that do not comply will be returned to the appropriate offering unit, thus causing a delay in processing the proposal. The Curriculum Report is published approximately seven times a year. The deadlines for submitting materials to the Senate Office for inclusion in the report can be found in the front section of each issue or on the web under Curricular Deadlines .
