1. Past minutes concerning draft of minutes

Draft of minutes should be passed out to everyone for corrections and sent back to recorder within five days. The recorder will give the completed minutes to the
chair for distribution.

2. Official name request

Because of there being at times confusion over the official name of this unique committee and its relationship to CIC a discussion ensued over establishing the appropriate name to use when speaking of the curriculum committee.
A: Work groups that report to CIC should be committees not "Sub".
B: Committees that report to the CIC not subcommittees.
C: A formal request will be presented to CIC to officially change name from "Sub" to "Committee".
1: Objections were asked for and there were none.
D: Jeannie will prepare a formal request for the change and submit it.

3. CIC Web page

A: Ava Jensen is working on Web page and plans to show all counselors at January 2000 meeting.
B: Format is set up for each committee of counseling to have own web site. (A rep from each committee is needed for input on page).
C: Jeannie will be the representative and Barbara Bentz will assist.
D: Design and Content of Web page for Curriculum Committees.
1: Ava needs a written statement of purpose, a list of committee members and goals for the year.
2: Some ideas for the page are to put minutes of past meetings, links to other resources and a comment section "Feedback". A way for people to email individual committee members or the committee as a whole. The question pending is: Who will respond to such questions?

4. Work objectives and prioritizing them

A: Six total objectives we reviewed to work on for this year.
B: Discussed narrowing down to three or four due to other responsibilities of the committee.
C: Discussed all current objectives and where to place them on a priority list.
D: These three work objectives that were given the highest priority for 1999-2000 was:

1: Seeking a better understanding of why the U of A would not accept CPD courses as eligible transfer courses and what if anything might be done to remedy this situation?
2: The Curriculum Web page design and related information.
3: Review of CPD courses

5. Continuation of U of A discussion Regarding Transfer course dilemma
