APPROVAL OF MINUTES: From March 2025 Curriculum & General Education meeting
There was a fix needed on who was present and absent. S. Eveland stated that she was there in place of L. Minor. After changes were made, the March minutes were approved on a motion by J. Rangel-Escobedo and seconded by M. Mayfield and unanimously approved by all.
NEW BUSINESS
- Certificate of Achievement - California General Education Transfer Curriculum (Cal-GETC)
After discussing the nuance of the program, S. Eveland had asked if the program went to SLO Committee. It was not due to outcomes being the same as IGETC PLO’s. On a motion by M. Mayfield seconded by K. Bandy and approved by majority this program is approved pending SLO Committee approval on May 12th. T. Mendoza abstained from voting.
CONSENT - Items listed under the CONSENT ITEMS are considered routine and are acted on by the Committee in one motion. There is no discussion of these items before the Committee vote unless a member of the Committee, staff, or public requests specific items be discussed and/or removed from the Consent Agenda. Any person can pull items from the consent agenda and move to new business, to be discussed and voted on individually. Items typically on consent are course outline of record under five-year review, renewal of distance learning modality or inactivation of course (removal from Chancellor Office Inventory of Courses).
Except for the two courses that were pulled from consent, the consent items were approved. Consent was approved on a motion by M. Mayfield and seconded by A. Bledsoe and unanimously approved by all.
Allied Health/Applied Tech Division – Course Revisions
-
- DNTL 3025 Current Topics in Oral Health
This item was pulled from consent for more discussion and questions about the content or lack thereof. S. Eveland asked about how there is no content meaning nothing after the titles. M. Oja talked about a similar situation in PHIL. A. Bledsoe mentioned that it still would be appropriate because the titles that changed are current and fall in line with what the course is trying to accomplish. On a motion by K. Bandy and seconded by A. Bledsoe and unanimously approved by all, the course was approved.
-
- UDGE 4080 Capstone Course: Healthcare Management
This item was pulled from consent for a quick discussion on the subject change. On a motion by K. Bandy and seconded by A. Bledsoe and unanimously approved by all, the course was approved.

ACTION ITEMS
- AP/BP 4235 and AP 4236
AP 4236 needed a correction in the second paragraph to notate Cal-GETC in lieu of IGETC and CSU GE. AP 4236 was approved pending changes on a motion by K. Bandy and seconded by A. Bledsoe and unanimously approved by all.
BP4235 was approved on a motion by J. Rangel-Escobedo seconded by M. Mayfield and unanimously approved by all.
On the other hand, it was determined that AP4235 must be sent back to the Senate. S. Eveland relayed information that there is a strong interest in removing the maximum number of units that may be earned in Credit by Exam. It was decided that more research is needed and it will go back the Senate.
DISCUSSION ITEMS
1. Next C & GE Committee meeting
It was determined that due to the volume of items in Tech Review, we will be having a shorter committee meeting on May 15th in the Cougar Room from 2:00pm-3:00pm.
2. Course Statuses
J. Lopez discussed why there were many items not DL approved due to the usage of an old form and incomplete forms. He also expressed the need to not “check” the “offline” portion on the form.
3. Curriculum related comments
V. Jacobi emphasized the need to complete 5 year reviews and CCN submissions because there is a lot of work to be done behind the scenes.
