    1. curriculum aspects of such programs must be processed according to the procedures outlined inthis chapter prior to finalization of external agreements.

      Hugely important to note.

    2. involve the granting of course credit in a manner other than described in the catalog

      There's a good argument that this is where language change falls.

    3. Resource requirements are not a considerationwhen approving curriculum proposals up through the Faculty Senate level; however, the Provost may usethis information when making a final approval/disapproval decision for C-change proposals.

      What's our lane? This is our lane.

    4. If the creation of a new program (degree, major, minor) is unrelated to an existing UIWdiscipline, a college/school dean will “adopt” the proposal

    1. voters can only acknowledge what exists, not what viewers wish existed

      Chicken/egg problem

    2. Involving all minority groups in the mainstream diversity discussion is necessary, but it also raises complicated questions about the merits and limits of solidarity. To what extent should people of color focus on increasing opportunities for all people of color, versus their own communities?

      Tough question

    3. Native Americans and indigenous people barely take part in major films produced in Hollywood, let alone at awards ceremonies

      Another piece of evidence

    4. But even so, it would be only the barest hint of progress for an industry that still systematically leaves so many people out. No Asian or Latina actress has won an Oscar in over 50 years.

      This is a central claim with a key piece of evidence.

    1. Istation is permitted to de-identify Personally Identifiable Information for any and all purposes.

      What does this even mean? Like, seriously?

    2. Istation is permitted to disclose Personally Identifiable Information in connection with the (actual or potential) sale, purchase, acquisition, merger, reorganization, bankruptcy, liquidation, dissolution, or similar transaction or proceeding of or involving Istation.

    1. probably not the end times of human thought

      Plato got it wrong too, so it's okay.

    2. How are you supposed to know if you’re reading it right?

      Why we have to have students reading these kinds of texts from early ages. I love when my kids read Bullseye, from Moonbot Studios, because they are always trying to figure out if they're reading it 'right'. http://moonbotstudios.com/

    3. affordances

      I love this word. I know is jargon-y, but it's so good.

    4. students who used the Internet mostly to send email, chat, and blog

      These experiences and expections are why it's so important to broaden students' experiences with digital technologies. Even my college sophomores are uncomfortable with technology when asked to engage in academic--as opposed to--social tasks.

    5. less characteristic of print in general than of the novel in particular

      But novels are such a small segment of the print most people read on a regular basis.

    6. Contemporary critics were doubtless appalled,

      Aren't they always?
