IMPORTANT C-ID CURRICULUM CHANGE CHEM 120 has been changed to CHEM 120S which is the General Chemistry SEQUENCE (110+120S) See how your courses are now listed at the website. / Why delays in many discipline reviews and/or finalization of descriptors/TMCs?
For many faculty discipline review groups (FDRGs) we are awaiting CSU faculty appointments thus delaying course descriptor final reviews or CCC course submission reviews – please help us in locating potential faculty!! Ask your own faculty for names of CSU/UC discipline colleagues who might be willing to become either Faculty Discipline Review Group (FDRG) members or Course Outline of Record Evaluators (COREs). You can send faculty names to
FDRG members needed in:
Anthropology, Art History, Economics, Engineering, English, Information Systems, History, Physics, Political Science, Theatre
What are the primary reasons that courses are not approved for a C-ID number?
  1. The incorrect CoR was submitted for the C-ID descriptor
  2. The CoR was too old – more than 5 years old. Please ensure that the textbooks on your CoRs are current.
What is the primary reason that courses are conditionally approved?
  1. Textbooks are more than 5 years old.
C-ID Catalog language is being considered at the C-ID Advisory Meeting this week!
We hope to have appropriate catalog language available (viathe CIAC list-serve) very soon
