ATTACH11ENT II
(for Information)
STATE UNIVERSITY OF NEW YORK AT ALBANY
Office of the Dean of Undergraduate Studies
A REPORT ON THE STATUS OF RECOMMENDATIONS
CONTAINED IN THE RKPORT, "NEW PATTERNS OF UNDERGRADUATE EDUCATION"
At the October 19, 1970 meeting of the Senate of the State University of
New York at Albany, the Executive Committee requested the Undergraduate Academic
Counc:tl to report on the status of recommendations contained in the report, "New·
Patte'--ns of Undergraduate Education." The report was issued in mid-Mar~h 1968 to
the faculty and students in the form of a newspaper tabloid.
The official repol.·t
was filed \-lith the Undergraduate Academic Council on May 6, 1968, which recommended
it for consideration to the Senate.
At the May 20, 1968 meeting of the Senate thl.s
report was accepted "in principle."
In the words of the Committee, "We are only specifying broad, general gui. ·
lines and even these are open to discussion and change." It is not enough for .he
University to transmit old ideas.
"The modern university," states the report,
"must give great attenrio.1 to the deve.l0pment of new knowledge and t 1 ·..! reinterrn·e
tation of old truths," if it is to successfully fulfill its role of supplying

our contemporary changing society.
I
of students and fas:ulty.
The key notes of this joint quest are:
inquiry. cre.a·-
tivity, relevance and involvement; used to perceive, understand and improve the
world.
TI1e university must play an important part in discovering, defining and
assessing the problems that confront society. It is the agent therefore ''of new
values linked to historic hum.:" 1 purposes. 11
The broadest function of the University, :ccording to the report :i.s to prep; ...
the s tudcnt for an unknmvn future, one wh:i.ch he will have to ~~l!ape.
The qunl~ ry
of life rests on the outcomr: of his efforts.
Consequently,
11a centr.tl conccn.1 of
-2-
the university should be the broad issues of social and political policy," explored
in an atmosphere free from pressure for immediate practical decisions."
Such
exploration, or any academic exploration, almost inevitab~y mus~ transcend national
boundaries due to our shrinking world and for this reason, the committee concluded
that international education program~ should be greatly expanded.
Since the commi.t+-.ee
repeatedly stresses that the central focus of undergraduate education must be the
student, free to pursue his own interests with maximum academic choice~ the report
reconunended that independen_.!:..._3tud;[ become a dominant characteristic of under;31 ~duat~
education.
In philosophy and method, independent study with its emphasis on the
"maturing of an individual's learning capacity, 11 vas conceived by the committee to
be "education itself." The interdisciplinary ~oach to learning was also given
great stress. while the piece-meal' course-by-course approach was discounted Cl'
' 11
outmoded and inappropriate avenue for an undergraduate education to pursue.
As r·.
corrollary to the importance placed on both independent and interdisciplinary study,
the commit tee recommended an emphasis on evaluation of achievement bas_e.c!__pn l<J.I_ger
!ields of st~'as well as on "creative works, performances, original papers, ece. !'
freedom to set up its o-vn"l__E2:"ogram_, leaving the university to "legislate only the bare
.
I
minimum standards."
1Thi£ \vas not to be accomplished, however, at the cost of student
academic mobility within the university.
The proposal for a
Gei_"!.~ral College with a
\
liberal arts·and general education orientation, further underscores the committee's
determination to make the education and growth of the student as a human being, a
primary orientation of tho un:lversi ty,
The E~erimental Co_lj.e~- proposal, calling
for an intq~ration' of the last three years of
~.gh school and the first two years
of college, \vith_ the usc of summers for unique educational cx1 d.ences, 1.vns designed
to provide an alternative to the traditional liberal arts college, and has the S[lrcc
..
-3-
general orientation as General College, but "here the normal expect.ation will be
that the student's program will lead directly to the master's or doctoral degree
rather than the traditional bachelor's degree," or perhaps, even lead to an inter-
national baccalaureate.
Experimental College seeks to be a creative response to
today 's educa.tional needs--it· seeks to provide a model for the future.
The Three-
Year Master'~, designed to help the student meet the added requirements of spe-
cialized training that society places upon him, is also an integrative proposal,
enabling students in their junior and senior years to work ~tra'ight on for the:i.r
Master's degree, thus making possible a more systematic planning of the student's
program and a cl~rification of his goals.
Finally, the committee recommended a
new academic calendar that would maximize flexibility'and thus enhance the chances
for implementation of its recommendations.
In sum, the report makes it clear that.the university can only beneficially
influence the development of mankind "to the extei:tt to which it is sensit:i.ve to the
needs of its historic place and moment."
In order to achieve these ends, the

accommodating admin:l.strative structure, prepared to make changes regularly and
systematically, using the present system as a foundation upon which to build.
On Novemher 18, 1968, President Collins appointed Task Forces on Instruction,
Academic Regulations, Academic Calendar, and General College each with the purpose
of making specific recommendations. for implementing the broad principles outlined
in the. special conunittee's report.
The Task Forces reported to the President by
March 1, 1969.
Later that spring, summary reports of each Task Force were pr:i.nted
and distributed to faculty and students.
A cautionary note of explanation ls
-s-
merit increases and tenure were referred by the Educational Policies Council to the
Senate Council on Promotion and Continuing Appointments.
With respect to both
promotions and the hiring of new staff, the Task Force stressed that greater atten-
tion should be paid to "the candidate's probable strength in instruction," so that
henceforth, equal emphasis would be given to both research and instruction.
On
May 3, 19 7l., the Council introduced "A Proposal to Revise ~uidelines Concerning
Promotions in Rank and Continuing Appointrnents,"·which the Senate adopted.
"The Task Force's recorrnuendation "that the University offer assistance to
SECT (Student Evaluation of Courses and Teachers) in the form of money and
consultant services" was acted upon and approved.
Du:r:ing the summer of 1969,
funds and space were made available to a student member of SECT to look more
deeply at its work.
He made two recommendations to improve its functioning:
1.
The establishment of a permanent organization--The Center for Evaluation
-
Coordination with a hired staff run by students and
2.
Students receive course credit for evaluation work.
To date, neither of
these recommendations has been acted upon.
However,
~n the fall of 19~0-a new
subcommittee of the Academic Affairs Commission of the Student Association was
formed and the group reviewed evaluations used at this and other institutions.
A ~ilot study to test the questionnaire and data output was conducted during
-J- --------------------------------------------------- ------- --- -- --

Summer Session, 1971. It is expected that a full-scale evaluation will be

conducted during Fall~ 1971.
It should be noted also, that the Council on
Promotions and Continuing Appointments has given greater recognition to the
importance of student evaluations in its 'Revised Guidelines', effective May,
1971 and that the Senate's Council on Evaluation had under consideration a
recommendation pertaining to the subject."
The Task Force proposed the abolition of the letter grade system (A.B.C.D.E)
and its replacement with S or U grades.

an S/U grading resolution was approved by the Senate on October 27, 1969, to begin
that fall for freshmen.
Starting with the fall term, 1970, such grading has been
used for all freshmen and sophomores and has been under the continuing review of
the Academic Standing Committee of the Undergraduate Academic Council.
The proposal for instituti.ng field examinations ~or students completing
work in their major and second fields was not accepted by the EPC which recommended
against mandating comprehensive examinations or alternative integrative projects for
graduating seniors.
EPC decided that such proposals, if any, must come from the
individual departments.
EPC, however, recommended that the proposal for the
"abolition of the equivalence between course credits and contact hours" be submitted
to the Senate for approval.
On September 21, 1970, the Executive Committee, acting
for the Senate, adopted the recommendation (which was also made by the Task Force
on Academic Regulations).
No'"~ credits assigned to a course "indicate the portion
of a normal 15-credit load and may not necessarily. be the same as the number of
class hours per week."
An explanation of this new credit system has been incorporated
iri the 1971-72 Undergraduate Bulletin.
The Task Forces on both Instruction and Academic Regulations recommended that

Shortly thereafter,
the Office of Innovative Education (established in the summer of 1970, to serve as
an aid for students and faculty members with new ideas), created a Connnun:!.ty Service
Program for '"hich students have been doing volunteer work and receiving academic
credit,
There are now over 700 students in the. Program which :i.s administered by a
Student Community Service Board.
Beginning in the Fall of 1971, the Program will
be maintai.ned as part of the underp,rnduatc program of the School of Social Wc.lfar£~.

Credit is granted in direct proportion to the number of hours a student works with
a maximum of six credits possible.
The Task Force on Instruction also recommended, in accordance with the principles
of the Special Committee's report, that a Center for International Education be
established "to coordinate the programs abroad of the·various department and that
increased funds be made available to students who wish to study abroad.
EPC has
taken no formal action on these reco~~ndations, but the Vice President for Academic
Affairs reported to the Senate in May of 1970 that the centraHzation and expansion
of these programs was already in progress.
The establishment of the Office of
International Studies, v7hich administers seven exchange programs (excluding sun1mer
language programs) and has a university-wide fqcus represent's a step tmvard the needed
centralization and coordination of exchange programs.
The Task Force called for the appointment of a campus-tv-ide coordinator of tlw
student exchange program within the United States' to provide information and offer
guidance to visiting students and to maintain relations with cooperating institutions.
Presently, this function is located in the Office of the Dean of Undergraduate Stucl'es. ·

cations and an increase in its budget support.
These recommendations "were referred

to the budget conMitt~e of the EPC and to the budget-planning personnel.
The

recommendation for the release of faculty members from teaching resl?onsibilities
within their departments to work within the Center in the development of new teaching
materials depends upon the coordination of departmental planning and upon the
availability of additional personnel" states the Hay 4, 1970 report to the Senate.
A,t present, only a very small number of faculty members are involved in course
' I
I
dcvelopm.cnt w.ith the Center and even fewer have recci.ved release time from teaching
duties in order to do so.

The recommendations calling for the computer scheduling of all courses so
that a better balance of student enrollment might be achieved was referred to the
administration "for additional study of the present load of computer personnel, the
potentialities of the computer, and the impl1.cations of further depersonalization
of university procedures."
The first schedule by computer was produced for fall
1971.
The recommendation for the expansion of the universi'ty student counseling
service was also referred to the administration for consideration on the needed
budget allocations.
Finally, the Task Force recommended "that the opening of the academic year be
on the Honday of the first week thus allmving for a complete first week.
Since
the fall semester, 1969, registration has been on a Monday and classes have been
scheduled to begin on a Tues~ay, with the last day of classes for the semester
being on a Monday.
/
In order to achieve a better separation of evaluation and instruction, the
Task Force on Academic Reaulations recommended the establishment of a University
Office of Evaluation whose primary functions would include:
placement testing of
-- -- --f-l?eshment-development-in-con~unGt-ion-\v-i-th-depar.tments, _of _fie_ld_ exal!linations
(rejected by EPC, as previously noted); administration of testing for credi.t by
examinations.; and
11 as~ist?nce in determining modes of evaluation for extra-academic
and work experiences."
EPC tabled this proposal pending an analysis to detcrmi.ne
whether sornc ·of these functions could be carried out by existing offices.
The
Undergradua.te Academic Council on Narch 2, 19 71 forwarded a similar proposal to EPC
which remains on the agenda.
With regard to Independent Study, the Task Force on Academic Regulations
recommended that "a student in a course should be allowed, with t 'te permission of
the instructor to attach to that course a project of additional reading, research and
-9-
writing for which he·may receive additional credits," and these credits may total
·up to the number of credits regularly assigned to that course. It was also urged
that each department establish at least one course, open to juniors and seniors,
that would be a readings course in an areas of the students' interest, for which
he would receive Independent Study credit. Each school or college now has a school/
college-wide course titled 'Independent Study' and/or 'Special Projects' for which a
stuqent may receiye up to 15 cr'edits.
Also, all departments ?ave
independent study
courses; however, wide variance exists between departments on matters such as .nu~ber
of cred.its available to a student, procedures for approval of proposed study
and means of adjusting faculty work load.
1'he Task Force urged that departments shape new departmental majors with an
interdisciplinary approach in mind, making possible an interdepartmental program
which would require a student to achieve depth in at least two areas of study.
Accordingly, "the Dean of the College," state.s the 1'ask Force report, "should
establish a limited number of budgetary lines to be assigned to faculty members
hired ~dth the express notion that they will give work in more than one department
.or division. 11
With regard to this last recommendation, EPC noted that it is present
________ p_olJ.cy __ tu_make_joint appoinGmen~s,- but--that- ca-re-must-be-taken- in-CYnler not To --- ---
leave the concerned faculty members "homeless in the department structure of the
I .
university a~d without a group of peers responsible for recommending tenure and
promotion.''
The Task Force regarded advisement in these interdisciplinary courses as
critical to student knowledge, participation and achieve.ment in such a program of study.
A limited number(s) of "departmental programs'' are in effect.
The recommendation for the establishment of a double major has been acted upon
and approved by the Senate on January 25, 1971 and was implemented in the fall of
1971.
The Task Force also urged tltat new courses be introduced at s~udont request,
to be arranged w:i. th a cooperating faculty member and that any faculty member mny

devise if he so desires, one non-credit course each term to be offered in addition
to his normal teaching load.
Such a course must receive the approval of a majority
of the faculty members in the department.
EPC recommended that the Task Force's proposal for the' designation of certain
students as "University Scholars," be ratified by the Senate.
"These students
shall not be governed by ordinary academic requirements for the bachelor's degree,
but shall plan their own programs in consultation '.'lith an experienced counselor."
The Senate, however, has taken no action to date, or~ this matter.
On May 15, 1969, a resolution was introduced and passed unanimously in the
Central Council of the Student Association to establish, ·as soon as possible, a
General College and an Experimental College and thus to endorse in a concrete way,
the pluralistic concept of undergraduate education espoused in "New Patterns of
'
Undergraduate Education," which, as noted earlier, called for a movement aw·ay from
the pattern of numerous discrete courses for other approaches, namely, .inter-
disciplinary study stressing larger units of subJect matter.
During the summer of
1969, a General College Planning Group was established under the direction of the
Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences. In December 1969, t~~group presented a
proposal to the Undergraduate Academic Counc~l for the establishment of a new
'
.
.
. ,
college to focus on the d~sign and development of a 'New Tow_n.'
Tl!e Council'
recommended consideration of it t9 the Educational Policies Council ~hich dld not
formally vote on the proposal.
A pilot group of 1.3 students was established to investigate the possibility
of creating an Experimental College and it requested that its work be incorporated
into an Independent Study course--Hum 499/Soc. Sci: 499(later A&S 300, 301 etc.)--
:.
I
for which each member of the group •·muld receive 15 credits.
On December
I~, 1969,
the reqtwst for the course wns approved by tho Curriculum Connni. t Lee of the College of
Arts and Sciences for Spring semester 1970.
A report on the activities of this group
was received by .the Chairman of the Honors and Independent Study Committee on May 20,
-11-
1971.
The report consisted of a 21 page written report and a 30-40 minute slide and
tape presentation.
They a~tested to the value of the experience and urged
the establishment of an Experimental College.
The Chairman forwarded the written
report to the President.
In conclusion, an Adhoc Committee on a "Three-Year Baccalaureate" recently
forwarded a report to the President recommending that a new college, located on
the Western Avenue Campus, be established to offer a Thre~~ ~.!. Bacc_2la_Ereat.e.
Students would apply for admission following t.heir·Junior year of high school
and would enter a course of study integrating the Senior year of high school with
three years of a collegiate program.
This program, leading to a Bachelor of
Arts with a major in Man and llis Institutions, would concentrate on developing an
understanding of our society and the institutions which direct and control our lives.

At the most recent meeting of the CUE & I, December 2; 1971, the
following agreements were reached:
1. That we support the general :plan to conduct the Undergraduate
Course and Teacher Information Survey.
We wish to insure,
however, that efforts be ma.de by the Student Commi'htee for
Evaluation to insure that when departmental or school-wide
evaluations are planned for a. given course, that the Under-
graduate Course and Teacher Information Survey will be
administered on the same day during the semester as the
other evaluation(s). Furthermore, we hope that redundancy .. ~
of questions will be minimized through cooperative efforts
of the various groups who plan evaluations for the same
semester.
2. That for the balance of the academic year 1971-72, that we
of the CUE & I will devote primary efforts to development
of U:1iversity guidelines in the two fallowing areas:
(a) l!,aculty teaching loads as well as faculty service to
the University. Distinctions are to be made with respect

Bill No. 197172-12
UNIVERSITY SENATE
STATE UNIVERSITY OF NEW YORK AT ALBANY
"Three-year Baccalaureate"
INTRODUCED BY:
Council on Educational Policy
December 13, 1971
At its meeting on October 7, 1971, the Council on Educational Policy
adopted the following resolution wi.th regard to the Time-Shortened
Interdisciplinary Degree Program (also referred to as the "three-
year baccalaureate"):
"Be it resolved that the Council approve the program
outlined in the document as submitted by the Committee
for the 'three-year baccalaureate.'"
Subsequeptly the document was reviewed at the request of the Council
on Educational Policy, by the Curriculum Committee of the Undergraduate
Academic Council and that Council itself.
Pending the appointment of
the faculty of that college, which has the responsibility for developing
admissions standards, curriculum)and commencement requirements, the
Undergraduate Academic Council did not address itself to these matters
in.detail but rather took the position outlined in its report to the
Senate.
The Council on Educational Policy has received not only budget projections
for five years but has also received a detailed plan for the support
of the program in its first, pilot year of 1972-73 from the Vice
- --- -PresTdenCf-oYA.caClemfc-Affairs-fn-cfudTng-tlie-orTgln oCrnt:etnarfutidTng __ _
and the rationale for the source of that support and its use in this
pilot program.
The Council has also noted substantial efforts at
obtaining outside funding, as well, and the need for the program to
receive campus endorsement to facilitate the receipt of external
financial support.
The Council continues to support the development
of the time-shortened interdisciplinary degree program while it also
notes the need to label the effort as an experimental one which will
need constant and intensive review and evaluation in its first years
of operation.
B.
Action.
The Council recommends to the Senate the adoption of the following
enabling resolution:
Be it resolved:
1.
That an undergraduate collegiate unit be established as
a pilot project on an experimental basis;

Proposal to combine twelfth grade and the first year of college
in an interdisciplinary degree program focused on Institutions and
Human Problems as they are institutionally influenced and expressed.
PROBLEMS AND OBJECTIVES
The State University of New York at Albany proposes to develop a
new undergraduate program which will diverge significantly from the
usual pattern in two major ways:
(1) It will develop an alternative
curriculum that is interdisciplinary, integrated, and focused on those
major social institutions and influences which constitute the milieu in
which citizens function, and (2) It will reduce from eight (8) to seven
(7) years the time needed for completion of high school and the earning
of the baccalaureate degree:
1.
We have for several years seen an almost continuous barrage of
criticisms, complaints and charges addressed to such society-wide subjects
as racism, marriage and the family, poverty and other troublesome economic
practices, educational practices, occupational entry and governmental
functioning at all levels.
In most instances we have responded by focusing
on the specific concrete instance which these criticisms and charges have
taken.
Attempts to resolve such specific complaints have enjoyed little
success since they seldom have addressed the basic issues underlying the
expressed difficulty.
In those instances where underlying factors have been
addressed, we have occasionally be~n called a "sick society."
This is an
apparent reference to what is perceived as relatively large scale institu-
tional dysfunction; and has raised question as to the adequacy of our
current major institutional structures and their content to meet the needs
of people in the highly specialized, apparently fractionalized, but intensely
interdependent and technological world of today.
Many, if not most, people have only the vaguest notion of the institu-
tions that structure, channel and control their lives; and this includes
college graduates.
Undergraduate education has been accused of doing
little to assist the student in attaining an integration of knowledge
obtained through courses in various disciplines.
It may not succeed in
assisting the student in attaining an integrated, systematized understanding
of institutions and their interdependencies.
We, as educators, have tended,
in this regard, largely to leave the student to his own devices.
In today's
-- -wor-ld,--and -in-tohe -foFesee~8-le-wor-ld--of--th€l.-Fest- ot"-this-GeTJ.tur:y-,--it- seems--
hazardous to have a supposedly educated population with only a sketchy and
unsystematized understanding of the institutions that direct and control
their lives, and the lives of others in the society.
Such lack of under-
standing occasions, and may support, such pheonomena as the governmental
practices revealed by the Pentagon Papers, the Viet Nam War, class and race
repression, time-limited marriage and family contracts, the dysfunctional
consequences of elementary and secondary school track systems, poverty, and
the well chronicled host of social ills which one may add.
Today's students
are challenging present institutional forms and practices, but they have no
indepth understanding of such forms and practices nor the interdependencies
of form and practice in one institutional area with that of other institutional
areas.
We thus have often seen them, and others in the society, wildly
thrashing about demanding change without a clear understanding of the
-2-
ins.titution ·
;,;rhich they seek change.
It is only by thorough knowledge
of that whictl
s to be changed that one may effect change which is
addressed to the needs one wishes to satisfy and which avoids the un-
anticipated consequences of change brought about through ignorance or
error.
The American college has, in general, not yet come to grips.with
these issues.
We propose that SUNYA do so by the establishment of a
program centering on the in-depth study of the major social institutions
and their interdependencies,
We shall refer to such a program as Man
and His Institutions.
2.
High School - College Articulation.
For a number of years
educators have been concerned with problems posed in the articulation
of high school-college educational experiences.
The May 3, 1971 issue
of the Chronicle of Higher Educittion reported the results of a survey
conducted among high school and college teachers on the question of
"duplication" in courses at the grades "12-14 level."
The general con-
sensus reflected a belief that there is an overlap of 23% to 30%.
While
it has long been appropriate to ask how the high school and college
learning structures and processes can be more closely and meaningfully
related, and how the transition from high school to college can be made
a more continuous process, the attempts to find answers have generally
been constrained by administrative structures in schools and colleges.
The State University of New York at Albany is under no such constraints
since it includes a campus high school (The Milne School) in its present
structure, and thus has the opportunity to take a major step in the
direction of marrying the high school and college educational experiences.
In many academic quarters today serious question is being raised
regarding the length of time it takes to acquire a college education.
Some colleges and universities have already initiated 3-year degree
programs.
In a special report of The Carnegie Commission on Higher
Education, published January, 1971, and titled Less Time, More Options,
it is recommended that "the time to get a degree be shortened by one year
to the BA."
Many students have attended this university and graduated in
three years although we have no formal program specifically for this
purpose.
There is no doubt that today's high school graduate has more access
than ever before to the world around him, i.e., through TV, travel, books,
magazines, etc.
Students are coming to college with more knowledge.
Yet,
there is evidence that for large numbers, the first year of college involves
considerable duplication of that which they have already learned,
The
Carnegie report at one point states, "The first year of college is often
largely wasted for students with a better general background than that to
which the colleges earlier adjusted and for students with clear academic
or occupational goals who want to get started toward their careers."
We
propose that SUNYA, through.the Milne School on our campus, accept high
school seniors at the school as freshmen at the university during their
senior high school year.
We believe that a separate administrative and
academic unit should be established within SUNYA to (1) facilitate the
articulation of high school and college educational processes, and (2) to
offer an undergraduate specialty concentrating on the interdisciplinary
study of the major institutional structures and processes of society, such
that the student is afforded an opportunity for a more integrated learning
experience than is now the case.
-3-
Those h·' ·h school students participating in a college preparatory
program in t.,:· secondary school are eligible for admissions consideration
provided that, at the end of the 1st semester of 11th grade their high
school average is 80 per cent or better or they rank within the upper
one-half of their class.
Each applicant will be subjected to academic
screening of the secondary school record and will further be required to
present evidence of a real and active interest in pursuing the specialized
curriculum offered in the program.
Recommendations from the high school
guidance counselor; one teacher from the social sciences areas; and one
member of the community, not employed in the secondary school, will be
required.
A personal interview prior to the admissions decisions may
also be required of an applicant.
The secon~ary school principal must
also certify which courses remain to be met for high school graduation.
During the academic year 1967-68 a special committee chaired by
Professor Webb Fiser--then Vice President for Academic Affairs--developed
a proposal for "New Patterns in Undergraduate Education".
The positions
set forth in that document were approved in principle by the Senate in
May, 1968,
The proposal now being offered follows the spirit of the
Fiser document.
The introduction, development, and conduct of the proposed program
require educational and administrative techniques and processes at such
variance with existing patterns that its inclusion in an existing unit of
the university could constitute a violation of the coherence and integrity
of that unit.
For that reason, we propose the establishment of a separate,
relatively autonomous, college to administer the proposed program with the
possibility of its encompassing other programs, in the future, which differ
markedly from the structure and processes of existing units.
Current planning at the University is in the direction of "thinning
out" programs on the main campus at Washington Avenue, which is already
overcrowded, by relocating some programs elsewhere.
Some activities are
currently functioning at the Western Avenue Campus located a few miles away.
Moreover, the Western Avenue Campus contains a full complex of residential
and academic facilities adequate for a quality undergraduate program.
Since
________ _p_tu~entfLELnt_eJ;"i_ng_ at_tb~_Utll_grade_ will_be expected to complete high school
graduation requirements, it seems appropri~t;- 1::0-i~cate the-program-near ___ _
Milne School--located at the Western Avenue site--which will facilitate
their high school graduation.
Additionally, locating the new college away
from the main campus may provide an atmosphere conducive to the development
by students,faculty and staff of an identity with the college and a cohesion
which locations on the main campus may slow or prevent.
Each year 300 students who have completed grade 11 will be admitted
to grade 12 as matriculated, full-time undergraduate students at SUNYA,*
Some of these students will come from Milne School while others will be
drawn from throughout the State.
While enrolled as first year college level
students, they will also satisfy the necessary requirements to allow them to
receive their High School Diploma (through the accredited facilities of
Milne School or the high schools from which they were admitted),
* This number will include both students from the Milne School as well as
those admitted from other high schools.
-4-
Student
enrolled in the college should be full-tLne students.
They would ·
toused, as ; ar as possible, at the Western Avenue Campus
although it L_, clear that many students may wish to commute.
When fully
operational the COllege Wf]] serVt' nrrroxi~ately 1,600 HtUdents,
In cooperation with the Milne School, the lcwer division would bear
primary responsibility for making possible in an n.cademically sound manner
the completion of the equivalent of grades 12-14 in two academic years.
Thus, those students interested in such a program would be able to attain
a junior standing in two years after their admission to grade 12.
The upper division of the college should be an academically specialized
unit offering a Bachelor of Arts degree in Man and His Institutions.
The
essential emphases of this program should be the interdisciplinary exami-
nation of the major institutional structures of society, their interdependencies,
their impact on role definitions and individual behavior, interpersonal
relations, cooperative efforts, social stability, social conflict, and
social change.
General Systems Theory should be the major, unifying, con-··
ceptual orientation of the program.
This will not preclude nor in any way
alter theoretical orientations specific to particular topics or disciplines.
Rather, General Systems Theory necessitates examinotion of interdependencies
and thus facilitates the integration of knowle2~e by the student.
Inter-
disciplinary team teaching should be emphasized in eac.:, topic area where
appropriate.
The faculty should be, as a m1n1mum, represented by the following perma-
nantly assigned disciplines: Political Science, Economics, Sociology, Social
Welfare, Educational History and Philosophy, Pt>ychology, History, Management
Science, Public Administration, Cultural Anthropology, Philosophy and the
literature departments, as well as natural scientists prepared to speak to
the implications of the influence of science and technology on man's
institutions.
As in the lower division, students in the upper division should receive
credit assigned not on the basis of specific, individual courses, but, rather
on the basis of a total number of credit hrlurs for a s:>ecific copic area r,er
semester equivalent to a full load.
Each semester of the two year upper
---- - -- -- divi-s:ton -wou-ld-; --therefore,--be--a-ddre-ssed-to--a--speciftc-topic -area~- -At-least-- - -------- -
three full days of the student's school week should be devoted to inter-
disciplinary study of the specific topic area of the semester.
Other time
in the school week should be available for elective courses which the stud<ont
could choose to take either at the new College or at the Washingt..on Avenue
Campus,
Such a decision would be arrived at in consultation with the student's
advisor-mentor.
The central objective of the curriculum in Man and His Institutions
should be to prepare students to be contributing members of the highly
specialized, apparently fractionalized, but intensely interdependent society
of the late twentieth century.
Courses in the lower division should have
examined in detail man as a Bio-Psycho-Social being.
The upper division
should concentrate on man and social institutions, i.e., the family, the
economy, the Polity, Education, Religion, etc,
Each semester should have
a specific social institution as its focus and such study should be examined
from an interdisciplinary perspective.
The surrounding communities of
Albany, Schenectady, and Troy offer rich opportunities for laboratory study
-5-
of institutional form and processes, and students, under faculty guidance,
should be exper'::ed to participate in considerable field work in such
institutions, .. ~lCurrent with academic (classroom) study.
Since credit is earned for a specific area of study per semester,
rather than for individual courses, there is no need to necessarily follow
the 15 week, 50 minute class model.
However, faculty members participating
in team teaching of an interdisciplinary nature must be prepared to indicate
at the end of each semester the content from his disciplines covered during
the semester and his evaluation of the level at which each student has
mastered or failed to master such content.
This becomes necessary in the
event a student decides to transfer from the college after having entered
the up~er division.
Grading in the college should use the alphabetical
model, i.e., A thru E.
Curriculum~~.
The proposed college, in large measure, derives its
theme from the desires of many students and other young people for knowledge
that is centered in contemporary human and social problems.
The program is
geared to prepare and equip students to make a realistic study of man, his
relations to others, and his institutions; and to do so in a manner that
facilitates the student's integration of knowledge that is multi-disciplinary.
With this in mind, the usual spread of introductory courses in the lower
division will be avoided, although the student will be expected to complete
requirements for high school graduation.
Instead, each of the four semesters
of the lower division will include only two areas of study.
These areas
will draw upon material from several disciplines and will promote the kind
of academic experiences which relates disciplines to each other.
Such an
approac~ to the education of young people in their late teens and early
twenties has also been recommended by F. P. Sharpless in his study "Problems
and Prospects of an 'Intermediate College'" (College Board Review, No. 79
[Spring 1971], pp. 5-10).
Archie R. Dykes also pr-;-poses a .similar highly
relevant approach in the "teaching and development of young people capable
of assuming responsibility for their own life-long education" ("A New
Success Model for Public Higher Education,'' Educational Record, Vol. 52,
No. 2 [Spring 1971], pp. 129-132.
---
As indicated, each semester of the lower division will be addressed to
two (2) specific areas of knowledge.
Where appropriate, these areas will
--- ---- -- --be-d-ivided-into -four- modul-es-of- t.h'Fee--(3-) -w-eel(s- each -for eacli-area-6£
knowledge,**
This will be followed by two weeks of independent study in
the areas of concentration for the semester, and consultation with ti;l! faculty-
mentor and other faculty members.
This will be followed by one week of
faculty and student evaluative discourse, and the semester will culminate
in one week of examinations.
Classes will meet daily during the modular
periods on a schedule arranged mutually by the instructors and students.
*
The eight semester curriculum which follows is skeletal with the exception
of those objectives specified in the following narrative.
The teaching
faculty in each subject area will develop the substantive content applicable
to each area.
Included as an appendix are some considerations which
teaching faculty may wish to take into account in developing the substantive
content of each area.
**
Modules may vary in length according to the nature of the subject matter
and the time required to consider contributions of the various disciplines.
-6-
Each spe• Lfic area of knowiedge addressed during the four semesters
of the lower .. ;ision will include, in addition to the interdisciplinary
substantive co tent, consideration of the goals, values and practices of
that area of knowledge; historic and contemporary problems of the various
disciplines included with particular reference to the relation of tltat
area of knowledge to contemporary society-wide problems and, where appro-
priate, examination of alternative resolution proposals deriving from that
area of study.
Examples of curriculum content from Humanities, Science and Math may
be as follows:
Examination of selected major contemporary problems
(poverty, intergroup relations, social distribution of economic resources,
etc,) studied from such vantage points as the Fine Arts, Performing Arts,
Literary Arts, Linguistics, Philosophy, and History during the same
semester; examination of the Humanities and their expression of social
norms and values, and as vehicles of change in norms and values; history,
methods and purposes of Science, Technology, and Math and their relations
to the history and contemporary expression of institutional form and
processes; the uses and influences of Science, technology, and Math in
public policy and interpersonal relations.
Although students will be studying such traditional fields as mathe-
matics, literature, philosophy, history, and natural sciences, it should
be emphasized that these areas will not be examined as ends in themselves
but rather studied in their relationship to each other and used to assist
in the mastery of other fields, i.e., substantive content of Science, Math
and Humanities should be oriented to the non-major and related to con-
temporary issues, particularly in their institutional form and processes.
Evaluation of students will include, in each instance, their written
and oral command of the English language and critical thinking ability,
i.e., deductive logic, problem solving, decision-making processes, etc.

The up•
division w ll concentrate on a specialty in Man and His
Institution0.
Although students may enter the upper division without
having come through the lower division of the college, the upper division
is an indivisible unit and, thus, modular units are not available to
students in other un.it:s of the uni.ve::'rslty wishing to
tNkc~ <1 course wltllout:
being full-time students at the college.
However elective courses will be
offered in the upper division and these will be available to students in
any unit of SUNYA.
Each semester will be devoted to one of the major social institutions;
its origins and forms over time, with particular emphasis on the United
States, historic and contemporary American problems associated with
institutional structure and processes; institutional practice and response
in the late twentieth century, systemic linkages between various institutions,
the dynamics of institutional change, and institutional impact on role
definitions and individual behavior, interpersonal relations, cooperative
efforts, social conflict and social change.
In addition to substantive interdisciplinary content contributed by
the various disciplines, the conceptual explications will include con-
sideration of the goals, values and practices of the institution, major
contemporary prob~ems (may, where appropriate, be limited to the consideration
of one major contemporary problem) and institutional response, evaluative
assessment of institutional form and processes and considerations of
alternative arrangements.
Each semester will be divided into four (4) modules of three (3) weeks
each.*
The fourth module will be followed by two weeks of independent
study in the areas of concentration during the modular periods and con-
sultation with the faculty-mentor and other faculty members.
This will be
followed by one week of evaluative discourse between faculty and students,
and the semester will culminate in one week of examination.
Classes will
meet daily during the modular ~eriods on a schedule arranged mutually by
the instructors and students, but falling within a specified time period
(example:
10:00 a.m. -
2:00 p.m.)so as to provide the student with
opportunities for elective study.

The Admissions Office, in consultation wi.th
the appropriate departments should determine which of the Subject Exams
are acceptable for credit.
2)
According to normative data supplied by ETS, the score of 60 represents the
top 1/6 of the persons taking a test.
I<'urthermore, ETS has indicated that a
score or 60 or better is comparable to a "4" or "5" on the AP exam.
These
AP scores automatically earn placement and credit at this institution.
3)
According to normative data supplied by ETS, the range of scores from 40 to
59 students represents the middle 2/3 of the persons taking a test.
4)
Students are to be "urged strongly" to take optional essays because departments
reviewing exams having scores between 40-59 may want essays as additional
lnformation about the individual's knowledge of the subject matter .
. 5)
Departments should be free to establish their own procedures for working with
students in the 40-59 bracket.

those colfeges whose curricula allow for "general edu~ation" courses.
The tests
measure that knowledge and understanding gained by taking these "general education"
courses.
1)
The American Council on Educi:ltion suggests that a minimum scorE! at the 25th
percentile be accepted as the basis for granting credit in each area ·.and further
recommends that an institution grant six (6) credits for scoring at or above
this percentile.
Mr. R. Hart, Director of Admissions at SUNYA, suggests that
we award six (6) hours of credit in each of the areas in which a raw score
determined by CLEP is at the 50th percentile or better.
He further states that,
although this "cutoff" would be somewhat arhitrary, it appears to be fairly
c6nsistent with policies established by other schools.
He does not feel however,
that the 25th percentile is realistic in view of the "selectivity" factor
here as compared to a national profile of college sophomores; yet to require a
score higher than at the 50th percentile would not, in his estimation, be in
the spirit of the program.
"C" work :is transferrable and Hr. Hart thinks that
a score at or above 50th percentile is equivalent to a "C" or better.

Cred:t.ts shou .._. be awarded i.n general areas which are comparable to the acceptable
General Exam
(~g. "English Composition" credit for the English Composition
Exam, "Social Science'' credit for the Social Sciences-History Exam, etc.)
3)
The Admissions Office, in consultation with the appropriate departments should
determine which of the General Exams are acceptable for major, second field
and/or elective credit.
5.
The administration and coordination of CLEP would be the responsibilit~ of the Admissions
Office which would:
a.
receive scores
b.
automatically award credit to individuals who have scored 60 or better on
acceptable Subject Exams and to individuals whose scores are at or above the
50th percentile on acceptable General Exams
c.
refer scores of 40 to 59 on acceptable Subject Exams and essays to appropriate
departments for review

ATTACHMENT B
CLEP Subj~ct Examinations Model Policy
The Council on College-Level Examinations recommends that credit be awarded
to individuals who achieve a score on a CLEP Subject Examination that is at or
above the mean score acheived by students in the national norms sample who
earned a grade of C in a regular college course in the subject.
The amount of
credit to be awarded should be determined by the scope ot the material measured.
The list below gives the recommended score for awarding credit (the mean score
achieved by C students in the national norms sample) and the common length of the
course measured by each Subject Examination.

PURPOSE
The primary purpose of the Department of Physical Education is to function-
ally support the particular aims of the University.
"To achieve the first of
these, the University provides through teaching and the design of the academic
programs, opportunities for students to become liberally educated men and women
with superior competence in their chosen professions or occupations."l
NATURE OF PHYSICAL EDUCATION
-------
-----~-
"Physical education is the study and practice of the science and art of
human movement,
It is concerned >vi th why man moves; how he moves; the physio-
logical, sociological, and psychological consequences of his movement; and the
skills and motor patterns which comprise his movement repertoire.
Through
physical educatiori, an individual has the opportunity to learn to perform
efficiently the motor skills he needs in everyday living and in recreational
activities.
He may increase the awareness of his physical self.
Through
expressive and ereative activities, he may enhance his aesthetic appreciations.
Physical education provides situations for learning to compete as well as to
cooperate ~'lith others in striving for the achievement of common goals.
Within
the media of physical activity, concepts underlying effective human movement
can be demonstrated and the influences these have on the individual can be
better understood.
Satisfying and successful experiences in physical education
should develop in the individual a desire to regularly participate in activity
throughout life.
Only through enjoyable and persistent participation will the
optimum benefits of physical activity be derived."2
CURRENT PROGRAM
The Undergraduate Academic Council reported the current physical education
__ requirement to_ the _senate-for_ action--on March -18,-1-968. --The -Senate-approved -the---
Council's recommended program which has been in effect since the fall of 1968.
(Appendix A)
PROPOSED PROGF.Al1
A.
Experience gained during the past three years has helped the departments
in developing the following recommendations:
1.
The units concept be changed to credit which would be counted within
the hours required for graduation.
Ration~~: The learning experiences in these courses warrant the earning
of degree credit.
In addition, the change in 1968 from credit hours to a
unit eoncept for physical education severely downgraded the program in the
eyes of students.
The students 1 attitude toward physical educatj_on and
consequent effort to learn would be improved by the grant n of credit.
1sUNY-Albany Undergraduate Academic Bulletin 1971-72, page 6.
2
l'he Nature of Physical Education:
JOHPER, Volume 42, No. 4, April, 1971.
2a.
-2-
The four unit requirement be reduced to a two credit requirement consisting
of courses be·~w the 300 level*.
It would be expected that the requirement
would usuall~ ~ 3 fulfilled in the ftrst two semesters.
Rationale:
During the three years, 1968 through 1971, the physical education
departments have found it necessary to request of the Undergraduate Academic
Council permission to waive two units of the program.
These requests were
painfully made, but were mandated by the number of students in relaqon to
avaHable staff,
2b.
Establish an elective program beyond the requirement.
The maximum credit
in physical education for· courses below the 300 level"'' to be counted
toward graduation would be six hours.
Rationale:
The Departments are familiar with the desire on the part of some
students for additional opportunities in physical education beyond the two credit
program.
The student advisory committees have requested that credit be estab-
lished for course work in physical education.
Records maintained during the
past three years show a high drop out rate part way through the semester due
to the pressure of work in credit courses.
It is rather easy to stop attending
courses where there is no cred:i.t given.
3.
The grades awarded for physical education should continue to be "S" and "U".
4.
The requirement may be totally or partially waived through proficiency exam-
inations administered by the Department.
Academic credit would not be
given for the requirement completed by proficiency examinations.
5.
Foundations of Physical Education (PE 101) is particularly designed to meet
the needs of entering students in respect to understandings and principles
basic to physical activity and its role in human behavior.
For this reason,
freshmen who enter in September should enroll in the Foundations courses.
Students who are unable to do so are encouraged to take Foundations at a
l~ter time; however, this is not a requirement.
Entering freshmen may not enroll in other physical education courses during
the fall semester except by permission of the department.
6.
That the above·program be implemented beginning in September 1972.
Change-
over con'cerns would be resolved with the department working closely with
the Registrar's Office.
7, That the policies on physical education waivers adopted in July 1968 by the
Undergraduate Academic Council remain in effect. (Attachment D)
B.
Why Physical Education Should Be a Requirement
"In short, physical education at the college level concerns itself with
the quality of life its students will live now and in the future, hardly
somE;'lthing that lacks import or relevance."3
*Courses numbered above 300 are theory courses and currently yield elective degree
credit.
3Welsh, Raymond, "A Case for Required Physical Education in the Liberal Arts
College"
NYSJOHPER, Winter 1970, Volume 23, No. 2, page 29.
-3-
The requirement for physicnl education at Albany is justified on two grounds:
. (1) the fact that
L ce Albany's admission requirements are based on high school
rank in class, high ,chool average, Regents average, and Regents Scholarship Exam
or C.E.E.B. score, they in no way select students with basic understandings or
skills in physical education; and (2) physical education contributes to the present
and future physical and mental health of the individual through its instructional
aspects as well as through the direct results of exercise.
The evaluating instrument used in 1971 includes two questions significant to
this point on the requirement of physical education.
Question 1.
Would you have registered for physical education if it was not
required for graduation?
Yes - 62%
No - 38%
Question 2.
Was this year's physical education program of benefit to you?
Yes ~ 99%
No - 01%
Interpretation: Practically all of the students believed the program helped
them and this includes the 38% who probably 'vould not have registered for physical
education if it wasn't required for graduation.
ACTION
The Departments of Physical Education recommend to the Curriculum Committee
: of the Undergraduate Academic Council the approval of the program as outlined.

ATTACHMENT C
PHYSICM, EDUCATION REQUIREMENT
(As
Y' Jssed by Faculty Senate - March 18, 1968)
'•
The Council recommends the following change in the physical education
requirement:
1.
That the Physical Education requirement be stated in terms of UNITS*,
each unit to consist of 30 academic hours of instruction and·activity.
*For clarification of the above item, the following examples are given
which would complete one unit:
(i) Two single periods or one double period a week for 15 weeks.
(ii) Two double periods a week for 7-1/2 weeks.
(iii) Two 75-minute periods a week for 10 weeks.
2.
That four such units be fulfilled.
It is generally expected that the
requirement will be fulfilled in the first two years.
3.
That the grades awarded for Physical Education be "S" for satisfactory
and "U" for unsatisfactory, with the grade of "S" alone signifying the
fulfillment of each of the required units.
4.
That the Physical Education Department prepare proficiency examinations
whereby the above requirements may be fulfilled totally and/or partially.
5.
That Physical Education courses, intramural and intercollegiate programs
be incorporated into the offerings which may be used to fulfill the
Physical Education requirement with the approval of the Physical Education
Department.
6.
That the above program be implemented for freshmen beginning in September,
1968.
7.
That the Physical Education Department be requested to prepare and submit
its proposals for conditions of waiving the requirement to the Academic
-Standing GommiHee of-this Gouncil.--- -
--- --
- -- -
8.
That the Physical Education requirement be over and above the hour
requirements for graduation.
9.
That the Physical Education program be subjected to a detailed review
at the end of the third year from the date of its implementation.
ATTACHMENT D
PHYSICAL EDUCATION WAIVERS
The following policies with accompanying rationale were adopted by .the
Undergraduate Academic Council on June 3, 1968 with iespect to the partial
or total waiver of physical education as a requirement for the Bachelor's
Degree.
1.
The physical education requirement shall be waived for a student with
a physical handicap upon the reconnnendation of the Director of the
Un:i.versity Student Health Service after consultation with the Chairman
of the appropriate Physical Education Department.
2.
The physical education requirement shall be waived for a newly
adm:i.tted or re-admitted student who has his 26th birthday on or
before his first day of class at SUNYA.
3.
Tlh'. physical education requirement shall be waived for a student
who served six or more months in the armed services.
!+.
The physi.cal education requirement shall be waived for a transfer
student admitted at the sophomore class level.
(N.B. For the transfer student admitted; with sophomore standing
in July 1968, September 1968, or January 1969, the physical education
requirement shall be considered completed in accordance with this
policy because the four unit requirement becomes effective in
September 1968 for freshmen.)*
·
A student in the University College who falls within this policy should be
advised to write a short letter to the Associate Dean of the University College
requesting the waiver and stating one of the reasons above.
After verification
of that reason the Registrar and student will be notified of the waiver approval.

was waived for sophomores.

UNIVERSITY SENATE
STATE UNIVERSITY OF NEW YORK AT ALBANY
Persqnnel Policies Council
Report to the Senate
January 31, 1972
Proposals have been received trom agents of the Insurance Compa.uy of
North America and the Aetna Life and Casualty Company. Both plans indicate
that the savings to the employees are primarily the result of the payro+l deduetio~
of premiums as re~uired of the employer.
The University is in no con<Utio.n to assume. the cost of an additional
p~oll deduction. This in itself dictates tbe acceptance of the Connecticut
proposal as it was previously presented to the Senate. The other two plana have
no features more desirable than those of Connecticut General. Listed below are
·certain features that seem less desirable:
OnlY Connecticut guarantees a five-year continuation of the policy.
(Revocation of licence excepted).
Only Conpectieut states the.t age will not be a cause of non .. renewal
atter the five-year contin~tion.
Under the Connecticut Plan, an employee is still eligible to
continue the group insurance if he goes off the PS¥l'oll. Aetna
does not mention this. INA definitely states such individuals
are not eligible.
As recommended-by the Senate in-Bill No. 19'71'72 .. 68, the Vice President-
for Management and Planning is now proceeding to implement the Group Insurance
Proposal of the Connecticut General Life Insurance Company.
Respectfully submitted,
Robert G. Chatterton

Revj,sed Report to Personnel Policies Council
1.
I~VESTIGATI\~ BIAS.
The Cotnmittee approach to tho Parking situation was.vrith the follot-:ing
assumntions regarding the rights of all constituencies.
We realize that there
r.~y b~ disagreement.
1.1 Students, Faculty nnd Staff with severe physical disabilities
should have guaranteed parkine facilities adjacent to tho Podium.
1.2 Economically spoaking, it would bo poor managomont not to
provide tho Administration through the level of Depal:'tmont Head W'ith [;,"u<:~.rantoed
p.:1rkine facilities close to their placo of work.
Depo.:rtr.:ont H0ad is defined as
an individual at tho hoad of an Academic Department td th an FTE faculty of ton
or moro or an Administrative Officer with a salary of $2o.ooo p~:~r yea'r or more.
l.J Faculty and Staff, because of irregular hours and in order to
avoid financial loss to tho University and the loss of clo.ss time to large el'oup.a
of studon~s, roquiro dependable parkina facilities near tho Podium.
1.4 Commuting students, because of the necessity of dr~ving to the
campus, should receive first cqnsideration after Faculty and Staff.
1.5 Resident students, because they live next to the Podium and in
m ... st casos use their cp.rs primarily for 1:-ecrea tional purposes, have the least
roason to l:'oquire parking spaces near the Podium.
l.o All conati tuoncios should have :an oqual clnim on rostrict.nl
ap.:lCoc; not occupi.od by clns.sos 1.1 and 1.2 or hardship c,-.sos :whero indiviclu.'llD
n.uat bo in and ~out-of tl1o- Cb.lflpU::f d!lily oth-or thiiri to arrivo and dopnrt trom '·wrk
such as the Nursing S~hool Faculty.
l. 7 If tho funds for improved pal'king conditions can not bo obtained
th:rouch budget roquosts, tho burd0n should fall on the users to finance improvements
throuc;h increased decal charges or parkinG foes.
1.8 I,uck should be eliminated where possible for· fl:'ee, convenient
;:-;arkine; (adjacent to tho place of ''~Ol'k).
Those who have it sho-uld pay tho same
as those :who use the restricted pa.r.\<ing Al'eas.
Exceptions should be l'evie:wed by
tho Parking Appeals.Board.

In an effort to develop a more rational ~stem for resource allocations,

'W'el"4!H
no new fac.nllty positions would be available to tbe Univerllity tor

'be demonstrated; there should. not be a worsening of iJI'ba.lance in f'a<mlty ..

The deena recommended to Vice Presidetrt Sirotldn tbat D)lt of the f'acult;r
lines be :returned to the schools and divisions in Wbich incumbents were
cvrmtlY serving.
As a result, 71 of' the 86 positions ....ere distributed
accor.d.ingJ..y.
On the basis of the above guidelines, one position wu added
to the School of Librar,y and Information Sciences and 10 of the 71 returned
to the divisions and echools wer® specifically earmarked f'or the appointment
of women end m:i.rtorities. The :remaining 14 lines were pl~ed in a ·university
central re&\lerve. Ini tiall.y, it wu hoped that tke central :reaerve poei tionll
wouJ.d 'be redistributed oo the balb of agreed, upoa priorit:lEUI, but it aoon
became apparent that such f'lo:ibili ty would. b~ extremeq 1:1111 ted. The
National Science Foundation col\Ui tment re~tuired ·the uaignment of three linea
from the reserve, four otl;ter line111 had to be uaed for faculty returning in
1972 from leave without pay~ and tbe 8tmY Central Office :Ulsisted that 8 EOP
lecturers funded by a 1epa.ra.te appropriation would have to be ueumed on
Univ·ersi ty lines. Finally, the adm.:b.:tstration decided to coJIIId t three liaea
to la:unch the new 11thre<i1-year 'baccal.a\\l"~ate" pr~gr.u in the event that thia
pr~mal rece:t.ved approval. f':t•om the Senate. The overall :r's'Ult of these
external and intern&!. d.ec1.1llioruu is a net def:l.cit of 4 lines. This will be
met 'by line1 becoming ~vailable throt~h r.e~ignationa and retirements prior

in which the
f'iMcal affai:rM of the Uni versi·~y had been :m~~W.aged during the current year under the
direction and leadership of' Mr. He;rtley and hi.m staf:f'.

ment as D:i.rector of Res~arch by the Chancellor.
3.2 President Be11ezet noted that the State University tuition rise reflects
a return to the concept of higher education as a cost-benefit commodity
more than as a social benefit. For New York, regardless of philosophy,
there is sinlply not enough money available to the public sector currently
to fulfill the tremendous growth of public demands, including demands
for a new university in a state of established private universities
which a~~o are asking for state aid.
We must compete for attention and
support and we must revise our individual campus plans on a short ...
range, not also on a long-range basis.
3.3
~1e Central Administration has still to set priorities for the university
if the tuition bill is accepted by the Legislature.
3.4 Discuss:\.ons are go:tng on wi.th the State University Construc't;ion Fund
and the Dormitory Authority regarding our use of the space in the
Mohawk Tower for academic purposes, since its use for a student
residence does not appear ·to be a real.i ty in the future.

the Task Force on Academic Regulations:
"In recognition of their unusually high qualifications as measured
by Advanced Placement and entrance examinations, a limited nuF1~1er
(not to exceed twenty) of students shall upon admission be designated
University Scholars. These students need not follow ordinary

Affairs in consultation with the appropriate dean.
Each scholar
is expected to submit a substantial piece of independent work of
intellectual or artistic merit for evaluation prior to graduation;
this work shall be evaluated by the Committee."
This proposal was tabled by the Executive Committee on July 9, 1970.
The
Committee was then a.C'l:;ing for the Univers:!.ty Sena.te a.nd reported its action
at the next meeting of the Senate. The Executive Committee believes that
some aspects of the proposal merit reconsideration and has, therefore, called

the specific proposal.

Report to the Senate
February 28, 1972
~o:rt t:rpm the meet:i!?§ of Jan~ 201 .127!2
The Council received a report from Vice President Hartley on the
Governor' a Executive Budget pt"Gposal to the Legislature together with
an interpretation of its overall implications for SUNYA.
Mr. Blount was forced to resign his Chairmanship of the Council due
to ill health and the pressures of' other duties. Mr. Arthur Collins
was elected as the new Cha.irman.
The council heard more of the report from Mr. Dwight Smith, Director of'
Institutional Research, on the breakdown of course enrol.lments.

students from courses.
~e;pox:t ;~rom the me,eting of Jan~ 27 l 1972
The council received a report from Ml". Salk.ever that the Provost for
Graduate Studies in SUNY, Professor Daniel Murr8¥, would be on campus
for an unstructured meeting with the Graduate Academic council on
Wednesdf:cy', February 2, 1972. Three members of the Council on
Educational Policy agreed to attend the meeting as well.
The Council continues its discussion of the problem of low enrollment
in certain courses and received a report that each. Dean had been charged
with looking in detail at his own college, achool, or division to note
any problem areas there •
-!'he counc-il- was a.J.so-concernea aD<>uf the- pro1:51ems caU&ect_bj'_lliidergraauate
students who enroll in more courses than they plan to complete. These
students frequently withdraw late in the semester and 1tla¥ also be
unnessarily preventing other students from enrolling in these courses
since they would awear to be closedo -- It was the consensus of the
Council that this matter should be considered and explored further in
close consultation with the Undergraduate Academic Council and the
Conference of Deans. The Council therefore passed the following two
resolutions and asked that they be forwarded to the above-mentioned
groups.
"Be it resolved tQ.at the Council on Educational Policy
would like to explore further a policy to restrict under-
graduate students to 18 credits per semester unless they
have tm approval of the dean."
"Be it resolved that the council on Educational Policy
explore the policy of setting the date by which under-
graduate students may withdraw :from a col.tt'se without
penalty at the end of' nine weeks of instruction in the
semester."
;R!2!ort from th;e meeting of Fe~rua;z 31 127.~.
The Counc:l.l received a report from Vice President Salk.ever on the
meeting held by the Graduate Academic Council with SUNY Provost Daniel
Murray with rega.rd to the futl.tt'e of the graduate programs in SUNY. It
was agreed that the Council mu.st give attention in the near future to
some of the points raised in that discussion.
The Council continued a discussion of the proposal for a University
Office of Evaluation.
R!'l!o~t from ,the meet;!na ot F.eb~ l.Q.L.~
The Council received a report that Mr. Richard Aiken, an undergrad:uate
~Senator, had resigned fl'Om the Council.
The Council approved a resolution for submission to the Executive

topic of the term appointment renewaJ.s for teaching faculty.

Chairman Collins announced the resignation of Robert Morris, Dean of' Under-
graduate Studies, from the Senate. President Benezet appointed Dr. Edgar
Schick to repla.ce Dean Morris.
The Chairman introduced three new student Senators: Gino Danese, Graduate
Student Senator; Denis Von Shibut, Graduate Student Senator; and Steve Siegel,
Undergraduate Student Senator.
3. President's R~port
3.1 The President reported on the status of the tuition increase. The
increase has been computed to yield 19.5 million dollars for University
operations next year after tuition waivers t;md incen·ti ve scholarships
have been deducted.
The Trustees have said that this money will be used
only for University opera·tions and if the Legislature does not agree
the Trustees will likely rescind the tuition increase. The money will
be distributed and pro rated among the campuses.
SUNYA's share would be
approxima.tely one million dollars • :Priori ties for each campus have
already been discussed by Chancellor Boyer. Priorities would include
an attempt to keep up with the rising costs of maintenance and utilities,
the erosion of supplies, maintenance and staff for the libraries, the
support of student services, and money for such items as the annualiza-
tion of mandated salary increases.
3.2 President Benezet expressed gratification at the number of staff, faculty,
and students who have commented that this University is going to assume a
more dynamic stance towards its own fund raising from independent volun-
tary sources. Vice President Welch has been working along this line with
a grant given to the University by the Benevolent Association. Matched
by money from the Alumni Association, the University has now undertaken

conduct a feasibility study ·to see how we can raise funds for our own
projects. In this study, faculty, students, as well as townspeople,
alumni, a.nd regional corporations will all be interviewed and asked for
information and advice so that we can start on the long road that other
universities have built up so t.hat we can have a little :l.ndependence
for the educational projects ·we need.
3.3 Senator K. Kendall requested that at the nex·t Senate meeting a report
be given on the implementation of the Affirmative Action Plan on the
hiring of women for administrative positions. The Pres:i.dent agreed to
do so,
4 • Chairman.' s ~·11 el2?r~
The Chairman reviewed Chancellor Boyer's remarks in discussion with Senate
Chairmen at a meeting March 9, 1972. The Chancellor indicated his respon-
sibility for differentiating tuition for lower and upper division students
and outlined his proposal for use of the additional tuition income.
He
intimated that the Trustees would return to the campuses responsibility for
distinguishing between upper and lower division students. The campuses of
SUNY are being encouraged to act as though summer sessions support will be
restored. The Legislature has passed the budget including funds for the
salary increase negotiated in the SPA contract. The Chancellor commented
on the difficulties of New York University and on the Governor's proposal
that SUNY ·take over CUNY.
The meeting included considerable discussion of
Affirmative Action to ensure equal consideration for employment of women
and minority group .employees.
Since the Trustees are divesting themselves
of the authority for approving local by-laws, the Chancellor has re·quested
faculty input concerning areas to which the Trustees Policy should be
extended.
-The- Chancellor- commented that tne -mood of the Legislature- was -more quiet tlfan
last year. The hill to renew the sabbatical leave moratorium has been
introduced, but the Chancellor will be aggressive to avoid "a nuisance move,
an insult and a move that will no·t save money".
The Chancellor noted a
compromise is being negotiated between Comptroller Levitt and the Director
of the Budget which may require a line i tern budget for the Sta.te.
The Committee on Rev:l.ew of Graduate Programs under ]2rofessor Cantor of
Binghanrton has reported and the Chancellor will distribute the Report for
reactions from the SUNY Senate and other groups.

of the proposed Council charges for their recommendations. The Chair-
man noted tha.t copies..-had been sent to all members of the Senate, but
not to Council members who are non-Senators. Senator Hardt stated
that he had not had time to discuss the new charges in the Council on
Educational Policy meetings and· was concerned that the Senate was being
asked to vote on the new Council structure without having an opportunity
to discuss it fully.
Senator Hardt moved to table Bill No. 197172-25 until the regular
May meeting of the Senate. MOtion seconded and carried.
Several Senators noted that del~ing action until the May meeting
could cause problems since the 1972-72 Senate would be holding its

Senator Lampert spoke against the motion to postpone consideration
of Bill No. 25 until the April meeting of the Senate noting that the
Senate received copies of the Governance Commission's Report before
the Christmas recess and tha·t; a special meeting of the Senate was
held in January for the purpose of discussing the report, and also
tha.t the current proposal was mailed out in the Senate pa.cket.
He
said that this was more than enough time to discuss the proposals
and that if the Councils, or the Senators on the various Councils,

this was not sufficient reason for delaying a.ction on the Bill

University Senat~
The Governance Commission, which has been at work for more
then two years, proposes that the changes in the various Councils,
outlined in the Governance Commission's proposed By-laws already
disc"USsed by the Senate, should be made as changes in the operating
rules of the SUNYA Univex·sity Senate for 1972-73. The pages which
follow need slight amendment (for exwnple, elim:tne.tion of refe:t.•ences
to senators from the "Non-Teaching Faculty and other Professionals"
and "Service Staff Senators") before they are ac·ted on by the Senate.
Copies of a series of bUls, one deal~.ng with each Council, will be
presented to the senate at the March 27 meeting.
Except for such
technical language, the bills will be identical with the material
in the following pag(:lS.
Members of the Senate, before the March 27 meeti.ng, should
review the memorandum ·to the University Community from the Governance
Commission on the revised :ay ... laws under date of November 2, 1971.
This memorandum was di.stri.buted to the Senate with the Governance
Commission's proposal. In addition, Senators will probably wish to
bring to the Senate meeting, their copies of the present Sen~te

STATE UNIVERSITY OF NEW YORK AT AI~ANY
Council on Educational Policy
Report to the Senate
March 27, 1972
M~~~~n~ ?t!..!P:.:;::~·~ .li.P. .~
1. With the Undergraduate Academic Dean and the Chairman of the Undergraduate
Academi.c Council present, the Council on Educational Policy continued its
deliberations on the matter of a deadline for undergraduate student course
w:i.thdrawal. and maximum course load.
2. The Council discussed the matter of the University,Office of Evaluation
at some length with the Undergraduate Academic Dean and the ChairrnM of
the Undergraduate Academic Council.
While the Council felt that many faculty me:mbers might be able to use
additional assistance in plruming tests and scoring them, the current
proposal for a University Office of Evaluation was not one which it
could support. The Council was, by and large, opposed to the concept
of the separation of eva1uation from teachi.ng. The Council noted that
the Office of the Dean of Undergraduate Studies was coordinating--largely
through the Admissions Office--a, broad range of standardized examinat,.ons
already and that language departments were mak.ing major use of the MLA
examinations.
~1ch of the work has already been done on a national basis
in establishing these kinds of. programs, so we should not move into the
area of "test development" G
Moreover, the costs for operating such a
center might run between $250,000 and $1,000,000 per year. The proposal
also seemed rather unclear.
To some members of' the Council the proposal
seemed to be tied to the past. There was a general feeling that we have
- - - - many- of-the types-of -testing arrangements proposed already under develop .. --
ment at this university or are making use of national ones. Therefore
the Council approved the following resolution without dissent:
"Be it resolved that the Council on Educational Policy
rejects the idea of a University Office of Evaluation
at this time."
3o
The Council received an up~ated report of. discussions being held by the
Conference of Deans with regard to the potent:i.sl allocation of faculty
lines for the 1973-74 budget as well as some of the claims that might be
placed against that budget.
4.
The Council discussed the steps which had b~en tek.en over the last several
years which led to the pulling together of. resources for the development
of a Puerto Rican Studies Program.

copies of all of the Master Plan Paper Responses be put on reserve in the
Library together with the Papers themselves.
2. The Council received a report on policy with regard to graduate student
support.
M~~.t}.ni .9£ Mar~~~.1:2E
