TO: ALL DOUGLAS COLLEGE PERSONNEL
FROM: BILL DAY

Until our governance structure is in place, and able to assume duties of curriculum
assessment and approval for the college, I am requesting the Deans to constitute an
Interim Curriculum Coordinating and Approvals Canmittee.

The Committee of the four Deans will be chaired by Gerry DellaMattia, and will keep re-
cords of its transactions that will be passed on to the future college-wide structure

governing this area.

Therefore, all curriculum documents intended for implementation will be transmitted to

The 1981 Convention and AGM of the C-IEA
is being held this year in Vancouver at
the Holiday Inn Hotel on Broadway, May
21, 22 and 23. Although the program is
designed primarily for faculty members,
we have set aside Friday morning for a
number of events that will be of interest
to faculty, administrators and Board
members. The Friday morning program
consists of:

A panel discussion on the topic of
“Evaluation for Faculty, Administration
and College Boards" with representatives
from each group.

Three workshop sessions:

Faculty Managed Evaluation Systems, with
resource people fram Douglas College,
B.C.I.T. and Selkirk College.
Retirement Options with resource people
from Douglas, Langara, BCIF along with
Jim Reid, Superannuation Commissioner.
Literacy in Education with resource
people from CNC, OLI and others not yet
confimmed.

1:15 - 1:45 pm - Guest speaker: Dr. Barry
Moore, Principal of Fraser Valley College
will address the general topic of "WOMEN
IN THE COLLEGE SYSTEM"

this committee via the appropriate dean.
The committee will assess all documentat-
ion in the light of past practice, col-
lege philosophy, and policy, as well as
for inherent quality of preparation. The
committee will have the rights of approval
and rejection with commentary.

Approved materials will be sent on to my-
self for signature indicating approval at
the college-wide level.

This structure is intended to operate only
as-a responsible and accountable interim
mechanism.

All decisions made by this mechanism will
be subject to review by the permanent
structures of the college.
