3. Any major proposals that could directly affect the curriculum with regards to IT resources, infrastructure or support services.

That process should include, at a minimum:

1. Notice of any such proposal with clear rationale for the proposed change;

2. A significant period to allow for feedback, positive or negative, from affected colleges or departments;

3. Notice of the proposal, revised or not, to follow the feedback period;
