The following steps are required for the proposed change in concept or exemplar.

The faculty proposing the concept change will contact the cross campus coordinator for the course who will facilitate discussion of the proposed concept change across divisions. The majority of the faculty in the course must support the proposed change. The cross campus coordinator will forward this information to the curriculum committee chair for consideration by the committee.
  2. If the proposed change is for an exemplar(s) across all campuses, the faculty proposing the change will contact the cross campus course coordinator who will facilitate the discussion of the proposed exemplar change. The majority of the faculty in the course must support the proposed change. The cross campus course coordinator will forward this information to the curriculum committee chair for consideration by the committee.
