Curricula Committee Report April 21, 2011 l DC form 0383 merits individual attention and will therefore be presented separately l First, the Curricula Committee moves for the approval of all the other DC and CC forms in this report

Curricula Committee Report April 21, 2011 l DC form 0383 proposes a BS in IT degree program to be offered to the students of American National College in Sri Lanka only l The Curricula Committee has discussed this proposal at length and advises FS to discuss two general principles related to this proposal which raise concern but are beyond the scope of this committee as stated on the next slide

Curricula Committee Report April 21, 2011 (1) Should degree programs be created which are only offered in a local market (Sri Lanka)? (2) Should degree programs be created which are taught, completely or in majority, by non-S&T faculty (American National College faculty), even if said faculty are vetted by S&T? l If FS is in favor of both these principles, then the Campus Curricula Committee moves for approval of DC form 0383
