>The minutes read, "Prof. Kuhn: We are talking about nine hours

>hours of requirements." Prof. Kuhn adds: "Since departments may integrate

>separate courses for some departments it is 9 hours, for others it could
>be 6 or 3 or even 0. So departments do NOT have to require any separate
>courses. Thus we could keep these three requirements, encourage
>departments to integrate them into their other courses and reduce the
>strain on the hour requirements for majors without saying, in effect, that
>we believe Intensive Writing, Oral Communication, and Computer Literacy
>are unimportant."

Also, thanks for others who have made corrections.
