Senate Doc #2789S

                                                Approved   3/9/89   



                                  APC Document #18

                               MLA Catalog Revisions





        Note:  Catalog copy for the MLA program was approved by the Senate

        last year (1-28-88), though it was omitted from the 1988-89

        catalog.  This APC document revises the previously approved catalog

        description of the MLA program.  A copy of the full entry for the

        MLA program has been placed on reserve in the library in the Senate

        file.  





        Effective date:  Fall 1989



        Revisions:



          a)  under "Required Courses"



                replace "Hum. 500" with "*Hum. 500".



          b)  after the "Transfer Credit" section



                add "*To be taken at the first opportunity"



          c)  in the course description of Hum. 500



                replace "should be taken in the first year of

                graduate study" with "to be taken at the first

                opportunity".



          d)  in the course description of Hum. 600



                add "prerequisite:  18 hours of MLA coursework."





        Additional catalog copy revisions in MLA



           On page 45 under "POST-BACCALAUREATE STUDY":



                  change "...have two options..."



                  or read "...have three options..."



           On page 45 add a third option:



        3.  Master of Liberal Arts Degree



           The Master of Liberal Arts degree is a broadly

           interdisciplinary, liberal studies program at the graduate

           level.  It focuses on the theme "The Human Condition," exploring

           human nature, human values and the quality of human life.  This

           degree program is designed for college educated adults seeking

           intellectual stimulation and personal growth.  See page xxx for

           a full description of the program and application procedures.

        NOTE:  I think the above changes can be considered "editorial,"

        since they make no substantive additions to or changes in the MLA

        program, and since they merely restate or summarize MLA catalog

        copy which has already been approved.
