Accelerated Master s Program: B.A. or B.S. with M.A. (Plan B only) Up to 12 graduate credits applied toward the B.A. program may be used to satisfy graduate credit. The following restrictions apply: a. Dual-listed courses taken at the 500-level can be applied to both the B.A./B.S. and M.A. degrees. Dual-listed courses must be taken at the 500-level. b. The student must apply to, and be admitted to, the accelerated program prior to taking courses to be credited toward the accelerated program. c. No courses taken prior to admission to the accelerated program may be counted toward an accelerated graduate degree. No exceptions to this policy will be approved. e. Only courses taken at the student s home institution are eligible for dual credit. No transferred courses from other institutions will be allowed to count toward the accelerated master s degree. 7. Explanation of the Change: The Department of English is adding an accelerated master s program option for our B.A. students. The 4+1 Program will follow the already extant Plan B (Non-Thesis) option for the English MA degree. Below please see a sample program for BA students who would pursue the 4+1 option. This option is not available for the specialization in Creative Writing or for the Joint JD/MA program. These minor changes to program language more accurately reflect the subject areas that constitute program requirements and the course offerings that fulfill these requirements. These changes do not affect distribution requirements or credit hours. Sample program (4+1 MA degree, Literature Specialization): Junior/Senior Year 4 courses at 500-level = 12 credits Fifth Year 1 course at 500-level = 3 credits 6 courses at 700-level = 18 credits Total = 33 credits

10 ATTACHMENT I Explanation of the Changes: We wish to make two categories of changes: (1) Overall programmatic changes; and (2) Modifications to the 3+3 program Overall programmatic changes First, the Law School seeks removal of LAW 827 and LAW 850 as courses which will satisfy the experiential learning requirement. LAW 827 and LAW 850 are both simulation courses taught by adjuncts rather than full-time faculty, so culling those courses from the list of classes which can satisfy the graduation requirement is a sensible choice. The ABA accreditation standards impose a number of requirements on courses before they can be used to satisfy the experiential learning requirement, and the Law School would prefer at this time to lodge responsibility for compliance in the hands of full-time faculty members. The Law School wishes to add LAW 813* and LAW 859 to the menu of courses from which students may select that will satisfy the experiential learning requirement. LAW 813 is a live-client course. At present, our only live-client courses are LAW 821/822 (the year-long Low Income Tax Clinic) and LAW 844 (the Externship program). Live-client opportunities are excellent forms of practical training, and adding LAW 813 to the list of courses that will satisfy the graduation requirement will further incentivize students to seek out that experience. LAW 859 is a simulation course, but it will be taught by a full-time faculty member who will devote the proper attention to ensuring compliance with the ABA accreditation standards governing experiential learning courses. The Law faculty has also approved the addition of LAW 854, Debtor-Creditor Rights, to the menu of courses from which students may select in order to satisfy their code requirement. This course pays special attention to the United States Bankruptcy Code and requires students to examine key provisions, interpret them, and apply them. It is an appropriate addition to the list of courses which will satisfy the graduation requirement. Finally, the Law School would like to add LAW 835* as a graduation requirement. The Critical Legal Skills course will strengthen students analytical abilities as they prepare to study for and take the bar examination. The new requirement will result in no more than a 3-credit elective reduction. *N.B. We are simultaneously seeking new course approval for LAW 813 and LAW 835 on parallel tracks. Modifications to the 3+3 Program Per the recommendation of the Task Force, the Law School would like to expand student opportunities to participate in the accelerated option provided by the 3+3 program, along two dimensions: (1) we would like to expand the program as a general proposition (at present, with an eye toward including undergraduate students from the Beacom School of Business, and with an eye toward other USD programs in the future), and (2) we would like to modify the current structure of the program by discarding the requirement that participants take and satisfactorily complete a class taught by Law School faculty. As noted when we first adopted the program, this is not only a cost-effective way for students to earn both an undergraduate degree and a JD in six, instead of seven years, but also, it helps the Law School remain competitive: quite a few law schools, including our regional competitors, offer 3+3 programs. The 3+3 program, as previously approved, is structured as follows. Students must: Be enrolled in USD s College of Arts and Sciences; Submit an intent form for the 3+3 program by the add/drop deadline of the third semester of college; Earn 90 undergraduate credits by the end of the junior year; Program Forms, Substantive Program Modification Form (last revised 08/2016)

11 ATTACHMENT I 11 Meet all major, distribution and testing requirements by the end of the junior year; Have a minimum 3.25 cumulative GPA by the end of the junior year; Earn a 152 on the LSAT, which must be taken no later than December of the final undergraduate year; Enroll in the 3+3 Specialized Course taught by the Law School and earn the minimum equivalent of a 75, or a C, during the junior year; Complete all standard admissions requirements for the School of Law, including submission of the application and all application materials through the Credential Assembly Service, no later than April 1 of the year in which the student plans to enroll in the law school; Obtain a letter of recommendation from the chair of the department, attesting not only to the student s intellectual strengths, but also his or her maturity, work ethic and overall readiness for graduate school (in additions to the two letters of recommendation required by the law school admissions process); Students must also obtain a final degree audit from the Office of the Registrar attesting to the fact that they have successfully achieved all minimum requirements (90 credits, including satisfaction of the major, distribution and testing requirements) prior to enrolling. Participants in 3+3 transfer back to the undergraduate program the law credits they have earned after the completion of the first year of law school. Upon the transfer and ultimate acquisition of 120 credits, the undergraduate degree will issue. Those same 1L credits will also count toward the satisfaction of the JD. The Law School is now proposing to eliminate the following past requirements: Be enrolled in USD s College of Arts and Sciences, and Enroll in the 3+3 Specialized Course taught by the Law School and earn the minimum equivalent of a 75, or a C, during the junior year. The remaining requirements would stay in place; in particular, we do not wish to end our existing relationship with the College of Arts of Sciences. Rather, we seek the ability to expand any potential relationship with the remaining undergraduate colleges at USD. There are two reasons for this. First, even though we are focusing on the Business School at present, creating a framework into which both they and the remaining programs can fit subject to the approval of those schools, the Law School, and the USD Office of Academic Affairs would allow us the necessary flexibility to move forward with expanding 3+3 in the future. Eliminating the College of Arts and Sciences restriction will allow us to achieve this goal. Second, there is no added benefit in requiring students to take the Law School course. Students who have otherwise met the academic criteria we established are presumptively ready to come to graduate school, and successful completion of the course does not further illuminate our ability to make that determination. Moreover, undergraduate students who participate in 3+3 must carefully structure their plan of study in order to complete the necessary requirements by the end of the junior year. Achieving this goal is sufficiently difficult that adding a Law School course which does not meaningfully help us evaluate their abilities is primarily a burden for the students. Removing this requirement will operate to their benefit. Program Forms, Substantive Program Modification Form (last revised 08/2016)

Explanation of the Change: The long-term care curriculum developed over a number of years to meet the needs of four different programs in three different schools within USD. The result was courses with similar content being offered as part of the requirements for the various programs. The HSAD faculty reviewed the courses and the various program requirements and concluded that the curriculum could be covered more efficiently in fewer courses. The proposed new curriculum contains all the essential material from the previous curriculum. This is a more efficient use of faculty resources and will reduce the financial and time burden for students.
