At the time of preparation of the current proposals for revision of the
Computing Science Undergraduate Curriculum, I was approached personally by
Dr. Cameron and by memo (copy attached) regarding revisions that would
appear to be required in the details of the MACM program. The details of
the proposed Computing and MACM changes were brought before the members of
the joint committee set up by Mathematics and Computing Science to consider
such matters. It was unanimously and unhesitatingly considered that the
MACM changes should be considered as "consequential, editorially required".
changes provided the Computing changes were approved by Senate. (If any of
the computing changes were for some reason not approved, the corresponding
MACM changes should not be made).
The Computing changes themselves were incidentally supported by the
joint Committee members even though it is not formally required that they
have such support.
.
?
?
The Undergraduate Committees of the two Departments were informed
through their representatives of this consideration by the joint Committee.
It was decided to take such formal action regarding the
editorial/non-editorial nature of the changes as was considered appropriate
by your office.
I would be pleased if you would bring to the attention of SCUS or any
other appropriate body the fact that the MACM changes have been duly
considered by the joint committee.

The Department of Computing Science Undergraduate Curriculum
Committee has now completed the de4lopment of curriculum
revisions it proposes for the 1985-86 academic year. I am
attaching the complete set of these proposals (CMPT-UGCC.84-3:14)
as they will be considered at the Ocober 30th meeting of the
Faculty of Interdisciplinary Studies Undergraduate Curriculum
Committee.

As these proposals affet the Mathematics and
Computing Science Joint Honors

Program, ?
there ?
are ?
some
?
differences compared to the draft proposals I forwarded to you
with my memo of October 1, 1984. However, as we discussed
previously, the changes in the MCM joiht Honors Program seem to
follow automatically from corresponding 6hanges in the Computing
Science program.

As I see it, the calndar revisions that need
to be made to the MACH Joint
