II. CURRICULUM ACTIONS
   A. College of Arts & Sciences - Delete Course SOAA-5387 - Social Statistics - The department wants a more obvious sequencing of methods and statistics courses for majors. Social Statistics needs to be renumbered so that it is between Research Methods (3210) and Microcomputers (3444). Also, it is desired that graduate students no longer take this course.

B. Delete PEXS 5097 - Pharmacology and Substance Abuse
   This course was overlooked in the original proposal for termination of the Athletic Training concentration in the PEXS Department. This course, which is the counterpart to PEXS 4097, should also be deleted. Appropriate approval for course deletion is needed before the proposal for program termination can move forward.

1. The next meeting of the council will be November 27, 2000 at 1:15 p.m. in the East Tennessee Room.
