The following three course proposals were approved between meetings to expedite their approval. This will allow them to appear in the course roster for the Fall 2003 semester. They would have been approved at the February 18, 2003 meeting had that meeting not been cancelled by last week's snowstorm. On Friday, February 21, I informed the Senate that the courses would stand approved if I heard no objections to them by Tuesday, February 25, 2003. No such objections were voiced and thus they were approved.
