a. Rationale for
creation, revision, or deletion:
Faculty members in the Department of Art have voted unanimously to change the name of the department to the Department of Fine Arts and Visual Communications. The new name more accurately reflects the nature of the department and more accurately describes the breadth of disciplines included in this unit. Because it is more descriptive, the new name will make it clear to people from outside of the department what disciplines are included in this unit.
b. Summary of program:
The faculty of the Department of Art
is requesting permission to change the name of the department to the Department
of Fine Arts and Visual Communications.
The proposed change will have no impact whatsoever on the curriculum of
the degree programs.
