Status Report

Did not forward the proposal to change the Disciplines List for Health to the Board of Governors.

Whereas, Both written and oral testimony given through the consultation process used for the review of minimum qualifications for faculty in the California community colleges, known as the "Disciplines List," supported revising the Health Discipline as follows: Master's in health science, health education, public health, biology, nursing, physical education, dietetics, or nutrition OR Bachelor's in any of the above AND Master's in public health, or any biological science, OR The Equivalent.

Whereas, The Executive Committee felt that a public health degree does not guarantee inclusion of necessary health courses; and

Whereas, The Executive Committee of the Academic Senate for California Community Colleges, having evaluated this evidence, opposed the revision;

Resolved, That the Academic Senate for California Community Colleges do not forward the proposal to change the Disciplines List for Health to the Board of Governors. MSC Disposition: Local Senates
