  • MDS 340- Media Literacy Education for Students and Teachers

This new course proposal was submitted as being an elective in Media studies and a requirement in the BS in English. Since there was no paperwork submitted from the English department to show where the course was to fit in the curriculum, the committee decided to approve the new course as an elective in the Media Studies major only. Kathy Mauro sent an e-mail to the department chair and indicated that the English department needed to submit the appropriate paperwork to the committee in September indicating the changes that were being major to the BS in English program and where this course was to fit in.
