Advisory committee minutes do clearly describe who are the members of the committee. This makes evaluation of need difficult and lacking of compelling evidence in support of direction. The creative link between entrepreneurship classes and disciplines is worth noting as a potential model worth practicing. There may be an option to reverse the order and have a E Certificate with an elective structure for students to complete 9-15 units in a particle certificate process. Could provide a more rich environment for this classes without potential redundancy across college program areas following similar practices.
