Statement
of Faculty Senate Action:
Effective
Date: Fall 2005
Delete: On
pg. 59, under Bachelor of Arts with Concentration in Art History, section I:
Add: On p. 59, in place of deleted entry:
I. Required courses in the concentration—36
hours: ART 100; either ART 101 or 103;
ARTH 201, 202, 480; 12 hours of 300-400 level ARTH courses with at least 3
hours from Ancient/Medieval: 310, 320; 3 hours from Renaissance/Baroque: 330,
340; 3 hours from Modern/Contemporary: 355, 360, 365; 3 hours from Non-Western:
380, 385; and 9 hours of approved courses outside the department (see Art
Department Guidelines).
Impact: This
change in wording clarifies the degree’s requirement of 6 hours of studio art
courses. ART 100 is a prerequisite for
ART 101 and 103. Thus as previously
written in the catalogue, it appeared as a “hidden prerequisite.” This change corrects that problem and makes
explicit to students that ART 100 is not an optional course.
Rationale: This
change clarifies the degree’s requirements and prevents any misunderstanding
about required courses in the curriculum.
