== 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.

February 3rd Meeting Notes
- The Areas of Application and Minors, in order of popularity are: Business Administration, Math, Marketing Management, Music, Psychology, Economics, English, Statistics, Philosophy, Criminal Justice and Public Policy, Geography, History, and French.
- 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.
- If we wanted to include CIS courses in the AofA we have to be careful with double counting them (towards the degree and the AofA).
