   Statement of Faculty Senate Action:

   APC Document #15:  Catalog Changes in Arts and Ideas


   Effective date:        Retroactive to the inception of the course.

   ADD:                   HF-171-0 Jazz Styles to the list of courses which may
   be substituted for the laboratory portion of the arts requirement if the
   course is not in the student's major department.  (Page 47 in the 1993-94
   catalog)

   RATIONALE:             An arts laboratory class in dance is already offered. 
   Jazz Styles is a more specific course in dance.  In Jazz Styles the students
   learn the basic techniques of a variety of jazz dances and are encouraged to
   find their own styles within these techniques.

   Jazz Styles is in complete agreement with the objective of the laboratory
   portion of the arts requirement that is to experience the creative process
   through a "hands-on" experience.  

   IMPACT:                The only impact it has is that the student has an
   additional opportunity to fulfill the arts laboratory requirement.
