Curriculum and Academic Policies Committee (CAPC)

CAPC is referred to either by its pronounceable acronym (“cap- see”) or as “Curriculum/Academic Policies Committee,” is responsible for review and recommendation on all proposals dealing with any change in undergraduate curricula, including changes in existing courses, deletions of courses, addition of new courses, addition or deletion of entire programs, and maintenance of the academic calendar. Specific academic policies like admission, retention, probation, dismissal standards, and standards for academic honors also come to CAPC for approval. CAPC membership consists of six faculty members, one Dean, one student selected by the student government, and the Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs or their designee (see section F4 of the Contract).
