Colleagues: As of last week, the Texas Co-Board formally approved our new Forensic Science Lab, FORS 2460: Forensic Chemistry (Criminalistics). This means that Weatherford College can now offer it as a Unique Needs course this Fall. After I gather statistics on enrollment & number of campuses that subsequently apply for Unique Needs status themselves, I will petition the committee for FORS 2460 to be approved for official inclusion in the ACGM manual of transfer course in 2013.
Every campus in Texas can now apply as I did for Unique Needs Status and get rolling with yet another investigative tool in forensic science higher education.
As always, let me know if I can assist you in any way.
Here's the official notice from Brenda Berry of the Co-Board:
Don, we received the application for FORS 2460. The application has been reviewed and approved. The course has been placed on your academic unique need course inventory with an effective date of 01/01/2010, and will expire 12/31/2013. Please use the following approval number when reporting the course for formula funding.
FORS 2460 – 4301067124
I am available should you have any questions, and it has been a pleasure serving you.
Thank you very much.
-Brenda
