- Curriculum and Programs Committee – Meetings will be conducted virtually on Fridays from 10:00 a.m.-12:00 p.m; check committee website for updated meeting information and minutes, memberships, and functions. Proposal packets are due to the Office of Curriculum Development via email attachment at least two weeks (10 working days) prior to the actual meeting date. Refer to the C&P Committee Proposal Packet Checklist 2020-2021 for proposal packet requirements (download checklist to activate check boxes). Additional information is provided in the Curriculum and Programs Committee Manual 2015. Department Chairs are required to attend Curriculum and Programs Committee meetings to discuss proposals, unless proposal is a Consent Agenda Item. Consent items are typical ACGM/WECM required changes (consent items still require complete proposal packets for inclusion in committee agendas for documentation). Complete proposal packets for new and expired programs, program revisions, and consent items include:
