Curriculum and Instruction

“There shall be a Committee on Curriculum and Instruction. This Committee will study the curricula of the various schools and colleges, consider all requests for curriculum and course changes, and recommend action on such changes to the Senate, concerning itself primarily with curricular matters affecting the University as a whole. It may initiate suggestions to departments to improve their curricula and courses. It will study issues of instruction at both undergraduate and graduate levels, including teaching load, educational technologies, class size, use of graduate assistants, testing, and other pedagogical matters. It will adjudicate course grade appeals based on procedural irregularities, in accordance with the University’s official policy. It will recommend to the Senate changes to the University policy to increase emphasis on quality and the importance of teaching and strive to maintain balance between teaching and research. The Committee will collaborate closely with relevant administrators and staff, inviting them (in coordination with the Agenda Committee) to participate ex officio.”
