University Faculty Senate and the Faculty Council of Community Colleges


The University Faculty Senate and the Faculty Council of Community Colleges have established a Special Joint Committee on Articulation and Transfer.  I am one of two community college chief academic officers named to the committee.  Director Chris Belle-Isle is also on the committee representing the NYS Transfer and Articulation Group.

The charge to the committee is:  The Special Joint Committee on Articulation and Transfer is charged to explore ways of facilitating the transfer of students from one institution to another within the SUNY system and the articulation of programs that will facilitate the transfer process.  In doing so, the committee needs to take into account the importance of smooth transfer of students within SUNY, the administrative feasibility of such a process, and the prerogative of faculty to define the content of their courses and the resulting academic curriculum. 

This committee will initially consider several ways to ease articulation and transfer within the SUNY system:  a uniform course numbering system, a transfer template system for majors similar to the Teacher Education Transfer Template and agreements surrounding the 25 most often transferred courses.
