Proposal to offer a 298 "Special Topics" Course
Last revised: Wednesday, April 16, 2003

See "Instructions for completing CLAS CC&C forms" for general instructions and specific notes.
Note: 298 courses are normally reviewed by the Chair of CLAS CC&C, and do not require deliberation by the Committee unless questions arise. Courses must be approved prior to being offered, but are not subject to catalog deadlines since they do not appear in the catalog. 298 courses are to be used by regular faculty members to pilot test a new course, with the idea that it is likely to be proposed as a regular course in the future. This explains why a 298 course must be approved for each semester it is offered, and the number of times it can be offered is limited to three.
Submit one copy by e-mail to the Chair of CLAS after all departmental approvals have been obtained, with the following deadlines:
(1) for Fall listings, by the first Monday in March
(2) for Spring listings, by the first Monday in November
