We discussed and resolved two other issues from the previous year:



1. The conflict between those CSU’s offering only Western Civilization and those

offering both Western Civilization and World Civilizations has been resolved

with the addition to new World Civilization courses at several CSUs.



2. When community colleges offer sophomore-level courses other than the surveys

of Western Civilization, World Civilizations and United States history listed

above, those courses (e.g., California history, history of Mexico) shall be regarded

as lower-division, except when a separate articulation agreement has been

negotiated with a CSU or UC department to accept such a course for upper-

division credit in the major.



In the afternoon session, we reviewed the various pre-major requirements of the nine UC

history departments, where the lower-division requirements range from a minimum of

three courses to a maximum of nine. Many UC departments, but not all, offer students

the option of taking a lower division course in East Asia, Islamic world, Latin America or

Africa, in addition to Western civilization, World Civilizations and United States history.

The community colleges should be encouraged, therefore, to develop such lower-division

courses or continue to offer them.



We agreed that at our next meeting we would bring catalogue copy and course

descriptions covering a wide range of our community college, CSU and UC departments.
