== Feb 17 Meeting Notes

Motion:  CIS*1500 should be taught in a language which fosters advanced problem solving skills rather than learning of syntax.  The committee recommends that the CIS*1500 instructors choose a language with a python-like syntax.  The choice will be reported back to the curriculum committee by March 1.

  * This may be more of a Program Committee discussion, but the Calendar descriptions is:
  * An Area of Application normally consists of 4.00 credits (normally 8 courses) of a minor. Minors are described under the B.A. and B.Sc. programs. Access to some courses may be limited. Minors are listed in Section X of the Calendar. A student may complete a minor should they decide to do so.
