Re: ?

Change

of credit-hours, ?

CN.S 400/401-5.

I.S.C.

80-5.

Attached is a request from the Centre for Canadian Studies for a

change in the credit-hour value for CN.S 400/401 from five (5)

credit-hours to three (3) credit hours, effective in September,

1980 (80-3). This change is seen as a transitional measure; the

new Canadian Studies curriculum should be in effect in May, 1981.

Course content will be designed to conform with the three (3)

credit-hour value.

The above change was approved by the Faculty of Interdisciplinary

Studies Undergraduate Curriculum Committee at a meeting held on

May 13th, 1980. Would you please place this item on the next

agenda of the Senate Committee on Undergraduate Studies for that

committee's consideration.

N.S 400/401-5

The Universities Council of B. C. has approved the new Canadian Studies curriculum,

which is based on a pattern of 3-hour courses at both the upper and lower division

level. However, it appears now that the new program may not be put into effect

until May 1981, for budgetary reasons.

In order to fit the work of students currently in the program to the new pattern

of courses, the Centre for Canadian Studies has planned and scheduled all of its

upper division courses from Fall 1980 on as 3-hour courses. To accommodate this

pattern before the new program takes effect, it is necessair to drop the credit-

hour rating for the currently used C . S

400/401

hours to 3 hours.
