All online courses are to be offered on campus and also through Extended Campus except for
FR 611C in Spring 2016, which will only be offered through Extended Campus.
*Karens appointment needs to be extended (possibly for up to 10 hours per week; currently she
is appointed for up to 19 hours per week).
**Summer pay for Nancy needs to be secured.

Additional issues:
Consider asking students to pay for materials that accompany online and hybrid courses in lieu
of textbook.
Investigate integrating a languaculture approach into an online FR 417C, development to begin
at his convenience with a piloting target in or before Summer 2018 and an offering target in or
before Fall 2018.
