FROM:
Sung Bok Kim, Chair
Graduate Academic Council
FOR INFORMATION
The GAC met on October 23, 1981 and took the following actions:
1.
It was brought to the attention of the council that the School of
Education's dissertation guidelines and the University regulations
governing the doctoral dissertation guidance are in conflict.
The
requirements of the School of Education differ from the University
policy with respect to the status of the additional readers who are
not part of the original dissertation committee.
The Council re-
solved that the following part of the University regulations be sus-
pended unt i 1 September 1 , 1982:
"There must be consistency between the approval required at the
beginning and at the end of the dissertation project.
For example,
if a five member dissertation, the student should also receive its
guidance and supervision at the research proposal and design stage
and during the period of data gathering and analysis. There should
be consistency in the membership of the committee which approves the
topic, advises the student during the work and recommends final approval
to the appropriate academic unit." (Graduate Bulletin 1980-1982, SUNYA,
p. 23.)
Along with this suspension, the Council also resolved that the doctoral
granting departments and schools/colleges of the University be surveyed
in order to determine if the dissertation procedures of schools and
departments offering doctoral programs are in agreement with the Univer-
sity policy. That the committee on Educational Policies and Procedures
be requested to obtain recommendations from the academic units to
modify, if necessary, our current dissertation procedures.
2.
The Council received with favor the letters of intent for the Ph.D
Program in Environmental Science and Toxicology and the Ph.D Program in
Pathobiology.
3.
The Council approved the Certificate of Advanced Studies in Court Systems
Management.
4.
The Graduate Academic Council resolved that it has noted that the College
of Continuing Studies numbering system for Non-credit courses does not
conform with University policy and strongly urges them to conform to the
University Policy.
5.
The Council advanced thirty-six students to doctoral candidacy.
Reports to the Senate

FROM:
Sung Bok Kim, Chair
Graduate Academic Council
FOR INFORMATION
The GAC met on November 6, 1981 and took the following actions:
1.
The Council received an appeal from a graduate student, who received
a grade of
11D
11 in B. Business 503,
11Microeconomics,
11 asking for a
review of his examination or, if this is impossible, a retesting by
another instructor.
The Council was satisfied to learn that no
evidence exists to suggest that the grading was unfair in any way.
Therefore, the Council resolved that there is no reason for a review
of the examination by a third party or for another test. Nevertheless,
the Council was of opinion that the student should now be given, as he
requested, the opportunity of examining his test material.
2.
The Council was happy to concur with the following recommendations from
its Committee on the Review of Graduate Programs concerning the M.A.
program in Russian:
a.
In light of the knowledge that most programs in Russian have
experienced decline in the last decade, the Review Committee
congratulates the Albany faculty in Russian for its exceptionally
vigorous and suggessful graduate program.
The Committee recom-
mends that the M.A. in Russian be continued.
b.
The Department of Slavic Languages and Literature possesses the
appropriate faculty to offer a quality Certificate program in
Russian Translation. The need for such a program seems compel-
ling. Nevertheless, the Committee agrees with the.reviewers that
the new program should not be approved unless an additional line
is allocated for the Certificate curriculum.
c.
The Review Committee recommends that the Graduate Academic Council
commend the Slavic Department for the outstanding operation of its
graduate, research, and outreach programs.
