  4. CSU/UC-The committee recommends three schools to be listed. The information is included in the Curriculum Handbook. At least one from the CSU and one from a UC. James will revise the handbook to include adding the course number and title from the school. There is a difference between a CSU transfer course and a course that transfers in a Major at a CSU. When submitting a new course for approvals include three CSU/UC’s. This would help support transferability.
