The enclosed course changes have been approved by the Undergraduate
Curriculum Committee, of the Faculty of Science, and by the Executive
Committee acting on behalf of the Faculty of Science, at its meeting
of April 20th, 1971. The changes are minor and represent a reordering
of course content in two courses in the Department of Chemistry. They
are submitted to Senate for approval.

----------.-!-------
I submit documentation for the deletion of two of our present
core courses, Chemistry 231 and Chemistry 3313 and for their
UbSttUt1Ofl by two new courses, Chem
i
stry
232
and Chemistry
332.
These changes arise fro-,j the revision of Chemistry 102 and 10
which were substituted by the new courses 10
1
1 and 105.
We would like to institute these changes in steps with the
introduction of Chemistry 23
2
in the Fall 1.971 and 332 in the
Spring 197
2. ?
While this does not comply with the lead time
specified by Senate for new courses, the present; proposals are
minimal and simply involve a revisofl of the course content of
two o].cI courses. Thus I see no reason why the present proposals
cannot be implemented as requested.

JUSTIFICATION
A.
What is the detailed description of the course including
differentiation from lower level courses, from similar courses
In
the same department and from courses in other departments in
the University?
This course, Chem
232-3,
and Chem
332-3,
represent a revision
of the presentation and content of the current Chem
231--3
and
331-3,
a revision necessitated by a previous remodelling of
the freshman courses Chem
l0-3
and Chem
105-3.
Chemistry
232-3
Is a lo
g
ical and comprehensive extension of the knowledge and
concepts encountered in the freshman programme.
B.
What is the range of topics that may be dealt with in the course?
