Old Business

2) Articulation agreement with Wilmington College (Business concentration). This articulation was presented by Ric Shrubb and Bill Horne. Students may take between 90 and 100 credit hours.

3) Deleted from agenda.

4) CSCI electives and program change for 429A Computer Programming Major – Jeff Montgomery. Jeff reported the list of electives for this program was out of date. A new list was provided.

The recommended programming changes for 429A:

• add CSCI 255 (Computer Programming Logic) to the fourth quarter and move one credit hour of CSCI electives from the sixth quarter to the fourth quarter.
• Add to the CSCI electives statement is that one of the CSCI electives must be a programming language course.
