NEW BUSINESS
FYE/UNIV 100 Proposal
Nancy Parsons reported that a copy of the UNIV 100 proposal has been submitted to CCPI. She stated that the invited guests, Sue Martinelli-Fernandez, Angela Lynn, and Katrina Daytner, were all members of the FYE Leadership Committee that was created in Spring 2012. Nancy Parsons shared the history of the FYE Leadership Committee and the process under which the revised UNIV 100 course was developed. She stated that the proposed revisions to UNIV 100 and the FYE program will help ϲʷ¼ be more in-line with similar programs across the university. As shared last week, Nancy Parsons reiterated that CAGAS be reviewing a policy change for the FYE program.
Oswald Warner questioned who would be teaching the course. Nancy Parsons stated that potential instructors may include faculty from departments with FYE funds, Student Services personnel, advisors, administrators, and graduate assistants.
Ginny Boynton questioned the impact of this course on departments who teach Human Well-Being Gen Ed courses. Nancy Parsons stated that research indicates students typically take more than the three required hours in the Human Well-Being category, and it is anticipated this trend will continue.
Diane Sandage asked when UNIV 100 and the revised FYE program are to begin. Nancy Parsons stated Fall 2013.
Ginny Boynton asked if UNIV 100 was a Human Well-Being course. Chair McGinty stated that structurally and organizationally the course will fit, and the question is if the content is appropriate for this category. Chair McGinty clarified that in Letter A of the Gen Ed Guidelines departments not listed for a category can have approved Gen Ed courses based on merit. Magdelyn Helwig questioned the opportunity to revise writing assignments. Nancy Parsons stated that there are a variety of weekly activities, and it can be ensured that the final project can be revised and/or other assignments could be rewritten. Sue Martinelli- Fernandez suggested that the final assignment be a portfolio that contains revised assignments.
Diane Sandage requested that, on page 4 of the proposal, the word tolerate, with its potentially negative connotations, be changed to respect. Nancy Parsons agreed.
Oswald Warner asked if experts would be invited in to teach materials if the instructor was not conversant with the topic. Nancy Parsons stated that all instructors will complete a training and have a common book (3-ring binder). She stated that, when appropriate, guest speakers would be invited to speak to classes. Nancy Parsons clarified that to help facilitate guest speakers, the plan is to schedule several sections of UNIV 100 at the same time so sections can be brought together as needed.
Ginny Boynton questioned how the changes made to the FYE program would impact the number of Y designated courses. Angela Lynn stated that the number of courses would decrease, but it would not be by half. Magdelyn Helwig asked if students would need permission to withdraw, like is found with ENG 100. Angela Lynn stated that requirement currently exists with FYE courses and is a good point to consider with UNIV 100. Angela Lynn confirmed that the 1-credit hour is typical of these types of courses. Nancy Parsons clarified that UNIV 100 already exists and is being revised to fit its new purpose.
Chair McGinty questioned how the wellness framework directs the course and how it translates to current expectations of Gen Ed courses. Nancy Parsons discussed the Wellness Model and its six dimensions of wellness. She stated that the course addressed many of these aspects, including helping students learn leisure components as a way to connect to society. Nancy Parsons stated that UNIV 100 has holistic content and an interdisciplinary approach.
Magdelyn Hedwig asked if there was intention to incorporate a library day. Nancy Parsons stated that it is a consideration and that meeting with Councils has helped identify specific suggestions. Katrina Daytner stated that content on information gathering has been added. Magdelyn Hedwig recommended that titles or categories be used to show the interconnectedness of topics. Katrina Daytner clarified that this could be headings for different units.
Esteban Araya expressed a desire to have time management explicitly stated as it should be obvious for both instructors and students. Nancy Parsons agreed to this change.
Esteban Araya stated that he believes the course will benefit students, provide needed knowledge, and is a fit with Gen Ed. Ginny Boynton thanked Nancy Parsons and the FYE Leadership Committee for their work.
Motion: Ginny Boynton moved to accept UNIV 100 as a 1 credit hour Gen Ed course within the Human Well-Being category with the recommended revisions: 1. Change tolerate to respect on page 4 of the proposal and 2. Add time and/or priority management to course objectives. Esteban Araya seconded the motion. Motion passed unanimously.
Chair McGinty stated that UNIV 100 is automatically assigned Gen Ed Goal 6 and questioned what the second goal would be. Esteban Araya stated that he believed Goal 3 was the most appropriate. Magdelyn Hedwig stated that she preferred Goal 2 and does not care for the wording of Goal 3. Esteban Araya explained that students need to learn how to communicate with peers and instructors. Nancy Parsons stated that students will need to critically analyze and think about their decisions and she preferred Goal 2. Chair McGinty called for a straw poll. Five committee members found Goal 2 to be the most appropriate for UNIV 100; three committee members preferred Goal 3.
Motion: Magdelyn Hedwig motioned that Gen Ed Goals 2 and 6 be assigned to UNIV 100. Ginny Boynton seconded the motion. Motion was passed unanimously.
Chair McGinty asked for additional New Business. There was none.
MOTION: Donna Aguiniga moved to adjourn. The Council adjourned at 4:53PM.
CGE will next convene at 3:30PM on Thursday, 1 November 2012 in the Fox Room of the University Union.
Respectfully submitted,
Dr. Donna Aguiniga, CGE Secretary
