Statement of Faculty Senate Action:

 

 

APC Document  22:                  Clarify Approval Process for Project Proposals in MLA 670

 

 

Effective Date: Fall 2007

 

 

1.  Delete:         On page 189, in the description for MLA 670, the 4th sentence: 

 

            Project proposals must be approved by the project advisor and the project seminar                                instructor.

 

 

    Add:             On page 189, in place of deleted entry:

 

      Project proposals must be approved by the project advisor, the project seminar instructor and the Graduate Council.

 

 

Impact:

The MLA program does not foresee any impact from this change on program or university requirements. No concurrences are required.

 

Rationale:

The addition informs students much more clearly about the actual process that the program follows. Proposals must be approved by the Graduate Council in order for the students to proceed with their projects. This addition makes that clear up front.
