November 21, 

Attached are proposals for two selected topics courses, one at each of 

the 100-ard 300- levels. We were recently forced to mount an experimental 

course using a 200- level special topics number when a 100- level number 

would have been much more suitable. As we envisage using these course 

numbers only to mount experimental courses or courses which we do not 

intend to offer on a regular basis, their approval implies no continuing 

commitment of resources. Would you please place these proposals on the 

agenda of your next meeting?
