* Chris presented an overview of the curriculum revisions begun in the Winter of 2012, identifying the 2011 language standards and the college policy on experiential learning (the shift to a 2+2 mode of instruction across all three semesters) as the references for the revision:
**** Cathy and Marcel wanted shorter, simpler workshops and deeper assignments, Cathy finds the workshops too mathy
**** Chris disagreed. Wants to make the assignments simpler and lighter - synthesis of the material covered in the workshops
* meeting concluded at 15:10
