Other Committee Business:

There was further discussion around the 24 credit limit issue for a second degree and if the college discontinues this policy who would make that decision, Melanie will check in with Craig on this. Siv will be sending out an email to committee members with the number of duplicate degrees that were awarded as of spring 2013 and how many total credits each student had.
