Daugherty Acting Secretary SMD/hrb ib POLICY FOR RETENTION OF COURSES IN THE UNDERGRADUATE CATALOG If the courses are not offered at least once in three academic years, we believe the course should be removed from the unit's list of course offerings in the catalog. If the course is listed for pre-registration and/or registration but is not taught due to lack of enrollment, the course will be considered as having been offered. Each unit will include in its annual report to the Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs a list of all existing courses in numerical order, from lowest to highest, which have not been offered during the last three academic years. The office of the Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs will made accessible the list of these courses to the Chairperson of the University Curriculum Committee. On receipt of these lists the Chairperson of the University Curriculum Committee will notify the appropriate unit heads to request that the course(s) be (a) deleted, (b) placed in the Curriculum Bank, or (c) allowed to remain in the catalog. In the latter case, the unit head may be asked to appear before the University Curriculum Committee to justify the request. In the fall semester of even-numbered years the Chairman of the University Curriculum Committee will ask unit heads if they wish courses in the Curriculum Bank to be deleted or retained. A written answer will suffice to keep the course in the bank for the following catalog. If a unit wishes to remove a course from the University Bank after it has been in the Bank for five or more years, the University Curriculum Committee will ask that copies of a new syllabus be sent to members of the Curriculum Committee, as it will be assumed that the course material will have undergone substantial change. A representative from the unit will also be asked to appear before the Committee when the course is placed on the agenda.
