LAC Oversight Body Meeting
Thursday, March 18, 2010
BA 524 8:00-10:00 am
Present: Maria Brandt, Lyn Brodersen, Corey Butler, Vaughn Gehle, Linda Nelson, Will Thomas, Tom Williford
Absent: Lori Baker, Taylor Gronau
Approval of Minutes
Corey Butler moved that the minutes from 3/4/2010 be accepted without changes. Maria Brandt seconded. Motion carried.
Informational Items
Vaughn Gehle reported on his investigation into how other MnSCU schools indicate in their catalogs science courses intended for majors and science courses intended for non-majors.
Corey Butler reported that a communication from a faculty member was received regarding the appropriateness of the logic courses in fulfilling the MTC requirement.
Approval of Courses
Corey Butler moved approval of THTR 100: Introduction to Theatre for Disciplines: Humanities and Fine Arts. Will Thomas seconded. Motion carried.
Tom Williford moved that the LACOB ask for a more detailed syllabus and responses to the LAC form questions before approving THTR 220: Film and Television Appreciation. Will Thomas seconded. Motion carried. Corey Butler will take this back to the Theater Department with the bodys recommendations.
Will Thomas moved to table SOCI 270: Gender Issues until all LACOB members had an opportunity to review it; delivery of proposals to members offices has been spotty over the past week. Tom Williford seconded. Motion carried.
Course Descriptions
Linda Nelson suggested that MTC designations are included in course descriptions.
Adding MTC designations would be a curriculum change of less than major significance, and it would ease advising of students and determining what course meets what requirement.
LACOB agreed to revisit this issue once MnSCU rules presently under discussion are resolved.
First Year Seminar
After a brief discussion, the LACOB clarified that it will be considering FYS syllabi on their ability to express how the requirements of the First Year Seminar are met.
Plagiarism ought to be addressed in a more unified manner in this course. We will return to this, and definitely discuss when all FYS teaching faculty come together.
Tom Williford moved to approve Maria Brandts proposal for a FYS section. Corey Butler seconded. Motion carried.
Vaughn Gehle moved to approve Corey Butlers proposal for a FYS section. Will Thomas seconded. Motion carried.
Vaughn Gehle moved that we ask for further details before approving Stewart Days proposal for a FYS section. Lyn Brodersen seconded. Motion carried.
Will Thomas moved that we ask for further details before approving B.C. Fransons proposal for a FYS section. Vaughn Gehle seconded. Motion carried.
Tom Williford moved to approve Chris Frenchs proposal for a FYS section. Vaughn Gehle seconded. Motion carried.
Linda Nelson asked that the instructions for FYS syllabi be modified to reflect the correct location and contact information for Pam Ekstrom. Corey Butler will make these changes to the document and Maria Brandt will post them to the LACOB website.
Maria Brandt moved to approve Will Thomass proposal for a FYS section. Corey Butler seconded. Motion carried.
Tom Williford moved that we ask for further details before approving Brett Gauls proposal for a FYS section. Vaughn Gehle seconded. Motion carried.
Vaughn Gehle moved that we ask Michael Hofstetter to convert some of the topics listed on his FYS syllabus into questions to be addressed with critical thinking before approval of his proposal. Tom Williford seconded. Motion carried.
Vaughn Gehle moved that we ask Steve Kramer for a list of reading/discussion topics for his FYS syllabus prior to its approval. Tom Williford seconded. Motion carried.
Tom Williford moved to approve Jan Lofts proposal for a FYS section. Vaughn Gehle seconded. Motion carried.
Tom Williford moved that we ask for further details before approving Donna Reaves proposal for a FYS section. Vaughn Gehle seconded. Motion carried.
Corey Butler moved to approve Doug Simons proposal for a FYS section. Lyn Brodersen seconded. Motion carried.
Vaughn Gehle moved to approve Jim Zarzanas proposal for a FYS section. Linda Nelson seconded. Motion carried.
We will need to continue recruiting instructors for FYS.
Contemporary Issues Seminar
Discussion was held addressing the possibility of changing requirements for what fulfills the outcomes of the Contemporary Issues Seminar.
Tom Williford moved that LACOB take the stance that changing the requirements for the Contemporary Issues Seminar is premature at this time and that it would set a precedent for changing other LAC courses. Lyn Brodersen seconded. Motion carried.
Education Credit Caps
Corey Butler will speak with Rhonda Bonstetter to see how we can address the pre-requisites that seem to be such a sticking point with the MTC.
Tom Williford moved that the LACOB support Education in its endeavor to satisfy requirements of the BOT, MTC, and LAC. Lyn Brodersen seconded. Motion carried.
Critical Thinking Assessment
Lyn Brodersen will check on the availability of the upcoming CAT training in Boulder, Colorado.
We hope to be able to compare the results of the CAT to the CLA; findings will provide opportunities for scholarly articles and appeal to the HLC.
Other
Corey Butler will be visiting the SmSUFA Executive Committee this coming Monday to respond to questions regarding LAC and capstone courses.
Linda Nelson will send out links to Appalachian State Universitys visual representation of their liberal arts core.
Corey Butler will send a list of First Year Seminar titles to Admissions for inclusion in their mailings.
Meeting adjourned at 9:37am.
Minutes respectfully submitted by Maria Brandt.
