EFFECTIVE: Fall 2007, Upon Chancellor's Approval

RATIONALE: The AA degree should directly articulate with the baccalaureate core degree requirements. Students should be able to move seamlessly from the AA degree to a four year degree. There should not be wasted credits or exceptions that will confuse the student锟絪 ability to move to a four year degree. The current AA degree requirements are different from the baccalaureate core degree requirements. The catalog description and the degree checklist are also different from the current baccalaureate core requirements. The AA degree should articulate directly with the baccalaureate core. By linking the degree requirements for the Associate of Arts program directly to the baccalaureate core, the AA program requirements will always be consistent with the baccalaureate core requirements.
