Today was the first official day of work! It began with a faculty meeting, followed by a department/division meeting, a convocation for incoming Freshmen, and ended with planting of a tree by the Freshmen and a reception. What a day! As the graduate director, I was able to successfully get an intent to plan a new program through our department/division, with one minor change. The next step will be taking the intent to plan to our graduate council for approval. If it is approved at that level, it will proceed to the faculty senate, dean's staff, and then the Board of Governor's before heading to the state for approval. This process is only for permission to plan a new program! Stay tuned for the actual writing of the program!
