  2. 1. CLASSIFICATION: AP-003-089 2. TITLE OF REFERRAL: CPU 401: GWT Course Alternative 3. BACKGROUND: • This Referral proposes to introduce a new course as an alternative to meet the condition of EO 665 that students satisfy the Graduate Writing Assessment Requirement (GWAR). It was discussed first by the Academic Affairs Committee (AA-006-078) which recommended approval of the proposal. • The Academic Programs Committee was given the charge to vet the GWT course alternative as an appropriate course to fulfill the graduate writing requirement as an option to our existing procedures. 4. RECOMMENDED RESOURCES:Claudia Pinter-Lucke, John Edlund, Donald Hoyt, Frank Janger, Eric McLaughlin Alex Small, Roger Morehouse, Karin Russikoff, Liliane Fucaloro.

  3. 5. DISCUSSION: • (it should be noted that during the previous round of consultation the documentation of this referral, the new course was named either CPP 401 or CPU 401. Henceforward CPU 401) • Students currently meet the GWT requirement either by passing the GWT Exam or, after failing to pass three times, by applying and receiving a GWT waiver. • CPU 401 was developed as a writing course so that students can satisfy the GWAR. Students who did not pass the GWT twice could take this course. Students learn writing, editing and proofreading strategies and produce five essays, from which students select the best three to submit to the GWT readers. • If passes, students’ transcript will indicate GWT requirements met. • Course outline and course requirement make this course an appropriate alternative to meet GWAR. 6. RECOMMENDATION: The Academic Programs Committee recommends approval of the referral CPU 401: GWT Course Alternative.
