COURSE DELETIONS

INACTIVE COURSES

Courses may be put into an "inactive file" in the Office of the Senate Committee on Curricula. They may be reactivated by notifying the Senate Committee on Curricula. Those not reactivated within 5 years are dropped. Inactive courses are not listed in University publciations.

Reactivated courses must remain in its present form, i.e., a department cannot request that a course be reactivated and changed.

  • If the course is cross-listed with other departments or schools/colleges you must indicate that all academic units involved have been advised that the course is being removed from the curriculum
  • The appropriate school/college approval dates must be in the memo.
