Agenda Item(s)
Action Item(s): NONE
Information Item(s): President Brown shared the 2020 CPE General Assessment Report which includes updates to the general education curriculum. SACSCOC and CPE require all institutions to have thirty credit hours in general education core. Prior to this year, KSU used to have forty three credit hour general education requirements but was able to get those requirements down to thirty one or thirty two hours.
Regarding the AY2020 Grade Report, President Brown reported that despite COVID, the number of A's, B's, and C's are up and the number of D's, F's, and W's are down.
The Faulty Institutional Load Report showed that the average faculty workload is twelve credit hours. The workload is evenly distributed by college but the amount of workload per department needs to be assessed.
