Jen Garret-Ostermiller, VTSU’s Director of the Center for Teaching and Learning, joins the Core Team effective this week. Undergraduate academic policy alignment is nearly complete, with only four policies remaining to be aligned. Work is now underway to align the graduate policies. Another sub team is developing guidelines for setting the course maximum capacity so that they are set consistently for all modalities and instructional locations.
We now have staff working with the curriculum committees to assist with the program approval process by checking forms for consistency and completeness and to ensure program construction is workable in Colleague. The faculty has begun the process of approving programs. Once faculty has given their approval, the program documents go to President Grewal for final approval. Be on the lookout for more details and communication on this in the coming month.
