• The Senate voted to waive the one-meeting rule for the proposal to reduce the number of required science courses for Elementary Education majors. The R. Wismer/Heintzelman motion passed.

There were three proposals, all of which passed without dissent.

(1) CHANGE IN COURSES/CURRICULA
Redefinition and replacement of existing courses (ART 362 - Printmaking 1, ART 363 - Printmaking 2, ART 462 - Printmaking 3, ART 463 - Printmaking 4, ART 563 - Printmaking 5) with new, topic-based courses in each of the traditional fine art printmaking media (relief, intaglio, lithography & silkscreen). These courses will be offered in place of the introductory and advanced printmaking courses currently offered. This one proposal includes 11 separate course proposals.

ART 361 - Survey Printmaking, 3 credits, a new course. Effective Fall 2002.
ART 363 - Lithographic Printmaking I, 3 credits, anew course. Effective Fall 2002.
ART 364 - Relief Printmaking I, 3 credits, anew course. Effective Fall 2002.
ART 365 - Intaglio Printmaking I, 3 credits, anew course. Effective Fall 2002.
ART 367 - Water-Based Silkscreen I, 3 credits, anew course. Effective Fall 2002.
ART 463 - Lithographic Printmaking II, 3 credits, anew course. Effective Fall 2002.
ART 464 - Relief Printmaking II, 3 credits, anew course. Effective Fall 2002.
ART 465 - Intaglio Printmaking II, 3 credits, anew course. Effective Fall 2002.
ART 467 - Water-Based Silkscreen II, 3 credits, anew course. Effective Fall 2002.
ART 468 - Mixed Media Printmaking, 3 credits, a new course. Effective Fall 2002.
ART 469 - Contemporary Issues in Printmaking, 3 credits, a new course. Effective Fall 2002.
Note: In the original proposal, this course was numbered ART 569; the number has been changed to ART 469.

(2) CHANGE IN COURSES/CURRICULA
Revisions to the Printmaking electives sequence in B. A. Art, B. A. Art: Commercial Art option, B. S. E. Art Education, and B. F. A. Art.
The change requests a change in course titles, course numbers, course content and course descriptions.

(3) CHANGE IN COURSES/CURRICULA
Elementary Education Science Option
Presently students are required to take 22 - 24 credits for the ELED Science Option in addition to an additional 6 credits in science for the General Education requirement. This has led to the concern that students could not complete the Science Option as presently constituted in a timely fashion. Thus, the proposed change will require students to take 16 credits to fulfill the Science Option and 6 - 8 credits to fulfill the General Education requirement for a total of 22 - 24 credits.

• A resolution supporting Dr. Robert S. Matulis for Professor of Mathematics Emeritus passed without dissent after a Fenwick/Luek motion.

• The Senate also passed a Wismer/Bvrger-Greco motion to suspend the rule to vote on emeritus resolutions at Senate meetings in order to vote on an emeritus resolution for Dr. Leon Miller via e-mail prior to the June 11 meeting should one be presented.

The Senate passed without dissent the revisions made to the Academic Proposal Cover Sheet after a Kevorkian/Wismer motion.
