A. Effective date: (Example: Fall 2009) Fall 2011

B. The justification for this action: (course no longer taught/comment if other) (ARH 594) Following up on changes and additions in the Art & Design department’s art history curriculum, and in conformity with current standards of the discipline, this course is being replaced by a new 400-level course on the more general topic of European Renaissance and Baroque Art. (ARH 595) Following up on changes and additions in the Art & Design department’s art history curriculum, and in conformity with current standards of the discipline, this course is being replaced by new 400-level courses on the topics of Renaissance and Baroque Art (1400-1680), and European Art of the long 18th-Century Art (1680-1815). (ARH 794) In accordance with current standards of graduate education in the discipline, 794 is no longer appropriate due to its survey approach and generalized subject. Graduate level art history credit will instead be generated when demand exists under the new variable topic, repeatable credit, intensive research course ARH 767, Seminar in Art History. (ARH 795) In accordance with current standards of graduate education in the discipline, 795 is no longer appropriate due to its survey approach and generalized subject. Graduate level art history credit will instead be generated when demand exists under the new variable topic, repeatable credit, intensive research course ARH 767, Seminar in Art History.
