• No longer must have consistency in pre-reqs and co-reqs across all colleges.
• There must be consistency within a college.
• Courses must meet the minimum number of contact hours for a given course type as defined by CDHE.
Today and Back at Your Colleges
• Discuss in disciplines if there are any pre-reqs the discipline would like to recommend. Then each college can decide to adopt those recommendations.
• The focus of the conversations at the colleges should be on pre-req efficacy (are they working as intended) and how to eliminate those not working.
