3.  Currently students who place into developmental courses are mandated to take those courses. These students are also able to enroll into 100 and 200 level courses before successfully completing developmental courses with a C- or higher. Current Issue

4.  Should we examine all college- level courses for developmental and ESL co-requisites or pre- requisites and enforce them? Issue

5.  GRCC students whose Accuplacer scores indicate that they need developmental coursework (in English, Math, or Reading) will be required to enroll in and pass that coursework with a C- or better before taking college-level English and Math courses, and other specified college-level courses. Current Policy Statement :

6.  Every department should establish a departmental review of all one hundred and two hundred level courses to determine if there are developmental or ESL prerequisites that must be completed prior to enrolling subsequent courses.  Where there are developmental and ESL prerequisites attached to a 100 or 200 level course we should enforce the prerequisite. Recommendations

7.  Would your department want co-requisites or prerequisites that include completion of developmental and ESL courses?  Are there courses in your department that would not need co- requisites or prerequisites? Please list the courses.  What concerns do you have about this effort? Table Discussion
