All proposals are due from deans to the Office of the Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs on or before December 1, 2022.
- Proposals will be reviewed for final approval by the academic deans, the Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs, and the President. Notification will occur early in the Spring 2023 semester.
