1. Enrollment Planning
The APC continued its discussions of enrollment planning with Assistant Vice President--Student Academic Services
Dennis Galligani and his staff, who presented a paper on undergraduate student demand to the year 2005. The paper
uses some different assumptions than does the undergraduate enrollment paper; it suggests alternative demand scenarios,
including possible underenrollment on some campuses. Together with the campuses and Senate, APC is formulating
principles to guide enrollment planning to 2005. Based on these principles, The Regents will consider a new UC
enrollment plan in early 1995.
2. Intercampus Cooperation: Coordinating Semester and Quarter Calendars in
Course Delivery
Director Merritt reported that some campuses on different calendars have agreements to share faculty or courses;
however, the examples are at the margins and not instructive for cooperation on a large scale.
3. Academic Senate/COC/APC Session
The APC discussed possible agenda items for the joint session, scheduled for October 20-22, and agreed that the
overriding issue for the session should be how to plan for an increasingly uncertain future. Some APC members suggested
as an agenda item the subject of campus examination of apparent redundancies in their curricula.
4. Review of the APC's Priorities for Action
The APC assessed progress to date on the priorities for action that it developed in January (see the APC Bulletin
#1).
Staff will develop a draft schedule of action issues for 1994-95 to be discussed at the September APC meeting.
5. Continuing Activities
(a) California Library Association (CLA) Task Force - Intersegmental Advisory Committee on the Future of Library
and Information Science
The Academic Senate will hold further discussions on a possible charge to a UC/CSU committee to work in tandem
with the CLA Task Force. The Senate wishes to see the formal charge made by the APC.
(b) Ad Hoc Committee on Agricultural Experimental Station Realignment
Provost Massey awaits final nominations, from which the ad hoc committee will be appointed. The Committee's report
is due in November.
(c) Compendium of Program Review Processes
The APC briefly discussed the issue of what to do if a proposal is sent forward without agreement from both the
campus administration and divisional Senate. The draft Compendium will be revised after preliminary Office of the
President and Senate committee review and circulated to the campuses and Academic Senate in September for review
and comment. The final product will be a new comprehensive procedural handbook covering all systemwide program
review actions.
