\par \tab \tab (1) This motion is a simplified version of one unanimously 
\par \tab \tab approved by the Dean\rquote s council of CSEM in December 2002 
\par \tab \tab for consideration by the Faculty Senate. The wording of this 
\par \tab \tab simplified version was suggested and approved by Ms. Gayle 
\par \tab \tab Gregory, Graduation Manager.  This motion has received the 
\par \tab \tab unanimous approval of the Faculty Senate's Core Review 
\par \tab \tab Committee.
\par 
\par \tab \tab (2) In effect, this policy will simply formalize current degree 
\par \tab \tab requirements.  For example, the B.S. Chemistry requirements 
\par \tab \tab start off:
\par \tab \tab "1. Complete the general university requirements. (As part 
\par \tab \tab of the core curriculum requirements, complete Math 200X; 
\par \tab \tab Phys 103X and Phys 104X or Phys 211X and Phys 212X)."
\par 
\par \tab \tab Degree requirements for all other B.S. and B.A. degrees in 
\par \tab \tab sciences have similar wording to accomplish the same task.
\par 
\par \tab \tab (3) It was the intention of the science core committee (at 
\par \tab \tab the invention of the current 51风流官网 Core) that the science and 
\par \tab \tab math core requirements serve as \lquote minimum\rquote , not as stand-
\par \tab \tab alone requirements. We simply wish to ensure that all 
\par \tab \tab baccalaureate students graduate with at least one college-
\par \tab \tab level math and 2 college-level science courses.  It was 
\par \tab \tab expected that in many cases these minimum courses were 
\par \tab \tab used to satisfy other requirements.  The proposed wording
