Changes to Pathways :  
Issues Raised : It was brought forward that many times community college courses that are evaluated at the university level are rejected. There is never any information re: why the course was rejected and often there is no warning that transfer on a course is being changed until it shows up in the CEG. The ATF as a whole would like to strongly support a process that will allow timely feedback to the community colleges re: transferability changes and reasons for why courses are rejected for transfer. The general feeling is that while there are policies in place that support transfer from CC to university, many univerisity faculty doing the reviews are still using this as a power play and from a grudge.

There were changes that several individuals wanted to make that involved UA participation but there was no UA rep present so the discussions had to be tabled.
