Steve Seidel distributed the current version of our semester credit requirements plan. Diana Shoos asked if these requirements matched those of our benchmark institutions. Steve agreed to check. John Sutherland pointed out that the current version lacks the Master of Engineering degree requirements, which differ from the other MS degrees Tech offers. Tom Flicker distributed a draft GSC policy on outside employment of supported graduate students.
Some departments explicitly forbid supported students to take on additional work.
A brief discussion followed. Mork suggested that some type of conflict of interest disclosure procedure might work for this situation.
