     Statement of Faculty Senate Action:
     
     
     APC Document 3:  Deletion of Soc 210 as a requirement
                                       for the Sociology Major
     
     
     Effective Date:     Fall semester of academic year 1998-99.
     
     Delete:   from the listing of the required courses for a
               major in sociology on page 198, Part I, the
               reference to "Soc 210."
     
               the reference to Soc 210 as a prerequisite to
               the following course listings
     
                    Soc 225 (on Page 199)
                    Soc 302 (on Page 200)
                    Soc 356 (on Page 202) 
                    Soc 420 (on Page 202)
                    Soc 450 (on Page 202).
     
     Change:   in Part I on page 198 the reference to elective
               hours from "12" to "15."
     
     Delete:   on page 201 in the course description for Soc
               355, in the last line the words "Prerequisites:
               SOC 100 and either 210 or 215." 
     
     Replace the deleted words with the following...
     
               Prerequisite: Soc 100.
     
     
     Impact Statement:  Enrollments in the course will probably
     remain steady as Sociology 210 is a social science general
     education elective.  Soc 210 will still be offered on a regular
     basis.

     Rationale:  The deletion of Sociology 210 from the major
     requirements will allow sociology majors more choice of
     electives within the major.
