RE: Five Year Course Inactivation Process
As a reminder, NMSU Administrative Rules and Procedures (ARP) 4.68.5.B states:
A. Automatic Course Inactivation: Courses that have not been offered for 5 years are subject to automatic inactivation by the University Student Records Office. Before initiating inactivation, the University Student Records Office prepares and circulates to the authorized departmental designee a list of such courses. Departments may utilize the University Student Records Office fast track reactivation process, with appropriate justification to maintain the course.
What has changed?
As always, Special Topics, Research, Independent Studies, and DIrected Readings that are not offered on a regular basis are not subject to this policy.
