FORM A CONT. 1. Proposal Summary As part of the ongoing deliberative analysis of the MCO curriculum by the faculty, it was determined that one course, OPTM 743 Environmental Vision, included some material that was unnecessarily redundant and other material that actually fit better in other existing courses. As a result, we are proposing the deletion of that course and moving the content to two other existing courses. This requires changing the configuration and titles of the two modified courses. No new course material is being added, no additional reference materials will be needed, and no other programs or departments are affected. 2. Summary of All Course Action Required* a. Newly Created Courses to FSU: Prefix Number Title b. Courses to be Deleted From FSU Catalog: Prefix Number Title OPTM 743 Environmental Vision c.
