I. New Course   PE 130.  SCUBA Diving I (2)
Designed to provide the entry level training necessary for certification as an Open Water SCUBA Diver.  Equipment assembly and usage, basic diving skills, emergency procedures, proficiency in dive planning and documentation through the use of RDP tables along with use of dive computers will be covered.  Introduction to advanced diving environments, underwater navigation, an introduction to dive physiology and dive related illnesses will be reviewed.  Training dives will be conducted in multiple environments.  Course Fee: $250
This course provides the training needed for certification as a basic Open water SCUBA diver.  Currently, there are no local resources to provide this training.  We now have a person with all of the necessary skills and training in the area who is interested in providing this service to our physical education and marine biology students as well as the University community as a whole. This course can serve to meet a University physical education elective.  It is also expected that Natural Sciences and Marine Biology majors along with students enrolled in subtropical ecology would desire this courses.  Beyond that, the courses will be offered on a non-credit basis to those interested.  Approved by COE Academic Council 10/10/07 This proposal to offer SCUBA courses is provided by Robert Sample who has extensive experience in this area and is currently providing similar coursework in Meridian.  Currently, Mr. Sample has an associate who is well established in the Meridian area and would continue this program should he leave the area.  The University will only need to provide access to the swimming pool and a storage area for related equipment.  Specific SCUBA equipment will be provided by Mr. Sample or by the students through mandatory course fees.
II. New Course   PE 131.  SCUBA Diving II (2)
Advanced dive training for the basic certified diver.  More thorough instruction in underwater navigation, multilevel and computer diving, basic equipment repair and maintenance along with training in deep and night diving will be conducted.  An in-depth review of dive physiology and decompression theory, search and recovery, wreck diving, dive operations from watercraft along with Enriched Air (EAN) usage will also be covered.  Prerequisite: PE 130 or permission of the instructor.  Course Fee: $250
Same as above with the exception that this course provides the additional training needed for certification as an Advanced Open water SCUBA diver.  Same as above.  Approved by COE Academic Council 10/10/07 Same as above.

Previously, the chemistry minor was designed chiefly for other science majors (Biology, Environmental Sciences) who would have taken General Chemistry in their core curriculum.  Current trends are for students majoring in the sciences to follow comprehensive patterns that do not require a minor, while increasingly students majoring in non-science areas are showing interest in the chemistry minor.  The suggested revisions reflect these changes in student demand and needs.

CH 432.  Inorganic Chemistry II (4)
This course will cover the synthesis and characterization of inorganic materials.  Extensive laboratory work is required.  Three lecture hours and three laboratory hours per week.  Prerequisite or co-requisite: CH 351.

American Chemical Society has changed the guidelines for program approval.   For a major, one year of each discipline is required.  In addition, redefining of appropriate laboratory hours by ACS has left the major below standards.  Thus a laboratory course in inorganic chemistry is needed.  This course will be offered when enrollment require the course.

Students have requested a comprehensive degree over the past several years.
Traditional Track
This degree option will follow ACS guidelines for the chemistry major.  This major will become the ACS approved degree when the chemistry program is approved by the American Chemical Society

Forensic Chemistry Track
This proposal will become the only forensic chemistry track offered by any four year institution for a BA or BS degree.  The only forensic program in the state is the MSFS program at UAB.  We foresee limited impact to programs and departments at other institutions, while the department forecasts an increase in enrollment due to interest in forensic science in general and forensic chemistry in particular.

Biochemistry Track
This option is designed for those students interested in pursuing advanced degrees biotechnology, for example medicinal chemistry, toxicology, pharmacology etc.

PH 201.  College Physics I (4)
Non-calculus-based introduction to Newtonian mechanics, energy, and thermodynamics.  Three lecture and three laboratory hours per week. Prerequisite: MH 113 or higher.

PH 201.  College Physics I (4)
Non-calculus-based introduction to Newtonian mechanics, energy, and thermodynamics.  Three lecture and two laboratory hours per week. Prerequisite: MH 113 or higher.

Modern digital instrumentation and computer-based data analysis has significantly reduced the amount of time required to collect the necessary data in beginning physics laboratories.  Actual time students spend in the laboratory is rarely three full hours these days.  Because of this, a number of universities are shortening their introductory labs.  In the state of Alabama, Troy, Jacksonville State, Montevallo, UAH, and UNA have already adopted this change.
For UWA, this has the added advantage of allowing the physics courses to accommodate more students without the need to hire additional staff or purchase more laboratory equipment.  Current physics enrollments have reached the maximum limit possible in the laboratory.  By reducing the laboratory contact time to two hours, an additional laboratory section can be scheduled without creating an overload for the current staff. This will allow physics enrollments to grow by 33% before additional staffing and/or equipment will be needed.

Revised syllabi will be submitted to the state articulation committee upon approval by the UAC.  No problems are anticipated since this change mirrors similar changes approved and adopted by the universities previously listed.
Approved by the Academic Council of the College of Natural Sciences and Mathematics, Oct 17, 2007

However, failure to adopt this change may require funding of additional equipment and/or adjunct faculty to support growing enrollments in physics.
