The unit administrator will coordinate the written response to the Dean by September 21, 2021. Unless the concerns can be resolved with clarification, revision, and/or withdrawal and re-submission, the matter in question will be brought before the full faculty for discussion, debate and vote. If no written objections are properly filed, the action will be considered approved by the College faculty and either implemented or forwarded to the appropriate University Committee (University Curriculum Committee, Graduate Council and/or Academic Planning Committee) with the faculty recommendation for approval.
