Hi Colleen,
do you want to delete (make "Senate Inactive") all the attached GAWM courses?
Can you get back to me as soon as possible?
The dissolution of GAWM was approved at the March SCUP. All courses linked only to
GAWM need to go to the May Senate for deletion.
You gave us the following list. Mary Ann pulled another from SIMS (see attached). They
don't match so we need to check what stays/what goes.
GAWM courses to delete:
