TRANSFER OF BACHELOR OF SCIENCE IN MEDICAL ART TO SCHOOL OF ASSOCIATED MEDICAL SCIENCES (15) The Urbana-Champaign and Medical Center Senates have recommended that the administration of the degree of Bachelor of Science in Medical Art be transferred from the College of Fine and Applied Arts to the School of Associated Medical Sciences at the Medical Center Campus, effective September 1, 1967. The recommendation has the approval of the administrative officers concerned on both campuses. The program has been in existence for the past three years. The change is recommended in light of this experience and in view of the fact that the final two years of the program are directly under the jurisdiction of the Department of Medical Art, School of Associated Medical Sciences. In addition, students in the program are now required to meet residence requirements on the UrbanaChampaign campus since the degree is awarded on that campus. If the recommended change is made, students can enter the final two years of the program directly from either Urbana or Chicago Circle. The Senate Coordinating Council has indicated that no other Senate jurisdiction is involved. I concur. O n m o t i o n of M r s .
