APSC Deadlines
To give all proposals and information full attention, the committee members need at least one (1) week to review. After review, the committee will often raise questions and invite appropriate individuals to meet with the committee to discuss. This means that any given item may take several weeks of consideration on the agenda before a final resolution is reached. Please plan accordingly.
Example:
Wednesday, week 1: Submit proposal for curricular or policy change.
Monday, week 2 (at the earliest; depending on length of agenda): On agenda for consideration; questions formulated
Week following discussion: Representative of department meets with committee (if necessary)
