PROPOSED CHANGE LIMITING THE NUMBER OF DEGREES
A STUDENT MAY RECEIVE IN THE COLLEGE OF COMMUNICATION CHAPTER OF
THE UNDERGRADUATE CATALOG, 2004-2006
| On page 70, in the College of Communication chapter of The Undergraduate
Catalog, 2002-2004, under the heading DEGREES, make the following changes: |
DEGREES OFFERED
In the College of Communication, six undergraduate degrees are offered: Bachelor
of Science in Advertising, Bachelor of Science in Communication Sciences
and Disorders, Bachelor of Science in Communication Studies, Bachelor of
Journalism, Bachelor of Science in Public Relations, and Bachelor of Science
in Radio-Television-Film. The requirements of each degree are divided into
special requirements, prescribed work, and major requirements; these are
given later in this chapter under the heading for the degree. In addition,
the student must fulfill the University-wide graduation requirements given
on pages 16–18 and the special requirements of the College of Communication
given on this page.
A student may not earnmore than two undergraduate degrees from the College
of Communication.
RATIONALE: The addition of limiting students to two degrees
will better enable the College of Communication to provide adequate opportunities
to take classes
for students who are attempting their first and/or second degree(s).
