Statement
of Faculty Senate Action:
Effective Date: Fall 2006
1. Delete: On
pg. 29, the entry for Latin
Add: On pg. 29 in place of deleted
entry:
Latin
Literature 3 3 CLAS 102
4,5 3 CLAS 212
Virgil 3 3 CLAS 102
4,5 3 CLAS 212
Impact: None on other departments. The number of students
affected will be very small and no additional resources will be necessary.
Rationale: We have determined that students who are capable of
getting a 4 or 5 in the Latin Advanced Placement examination are also capable
of taking Latin courses at the 300 level. In addition, the Classics departments
of UNC-Chapel Hill and UNC-Greensboro both offer more generous credit for AP
than we have done up until now, and we are increasingly in competition with
them for students. This change will also align us with the department of modern
foreign languages at UNCA who now offer credit for the 220 level for a 4 or 5
on their Advanced Placement exams.
