Senate Document #4

                         APC Document #2


The Academic Policies Committee recommends to the Faculty Senate
the adoption of the following:


Delete:        Under the heading "Pre-Medical, Dental and Law 
               Programs" on page 62 of the current catalog,
               delete the second paragraph beginning, "Any
               student who accumulates 90 semester hours...."

Add:           Replace the paragraph with the following:  "Any 
                    student who accumulates 90 semester hours of
                    academic credit at UNC-A, including the all-
                    University requirements, and is then admitted
                    to an accredited medical, dental, or law
                    degree program at another school in the
                    United States will be awarded a B.A. degree
                    by UNC-A when he or she has successfully
                    completed the first year's work in that
                    professional program.  Such a degree will be
                    identified on the UNC-A transcript and on the
                    commencement program as an 'Individual Degree
                    Program'."

Rationale:     In response to a request from the Degree Programs
               Committee for clarification of this catalog
               statement, the Academic Policies Committee
               approved the above listed changes to the 1977-78
               Catalog, Vol. 14.



(Passed by Faculty Senate January 31, 1978)
