Author:

###LASCC Website
The LAS Curriculum Committee maintains a [webpage](https://las.iastate.edu/faculty-staff/faculty-governance/committees/curriculum-committee/) of helpful information, deadlines, and links to central university resources for curriculum.

###Catalog Updates
If you come across an issue in the current catalog that needs attention (curriculum overview, four-year plan, inconsistencies with degree audit, etc.), please alert your department’s / program’s curriculum committee.

###2018-19 Catalog Preparation
Course-level updates for the 2018-19 Catalog took place during Spring 2017. This fall the narrative/mastheads will be updated. This includes information such as program overviews, majors, minors, and four-year plans. The 2018-19 Catalog will be published approximately February 1, 2018.
– Preferred date for submitting narrative edits: October 15, 2017
– Final LAS deadline for submitting narrative edits: November 1, 2017

###Experimental Course Process and Deadlines
All proposals must be submitted electronically through [CIM-X](https://nextcatalog.registrar.iastate.edu/courseadminx/). See the [LASCC website](https://las.iastate.edu/faculty-staff/faculty-governance/committees/curriculum-committee/) for guidance. For guaranteed review before registration period, Experimental Course Proposals should be ready for the LASCC by these dates:
– Spring Course Offerings – September 30 (After September 30, proposals will be reviewed as time allows, in the order they are received.)
– Summer and Fall Course Offerings – February 15 (After February 15, proposals will be reviewed as time allows, in the order they are received.)

Questions regarding preparation of experimental course proposals may be directed to Stephanie Hamilton (4-6471) or the [LASCC Cluster Area Approver](https://iastate.box.com/shared/static/l06ufoi12ber35qqmd72.xlsx) for your designator.
