What the demo shows

Curriculum committees check course and program proposals for credit math, prereqs and overlap

An Intake agent drafts each proposal from the syllabus and asks the department only what it cannot find. An Impact agent re-computes every program, prerequisite chain, transfer agreement and short-term program under the proposed text and says in plain words what happens to each. A Credit Hour agent checks minutes against 34 CFR 600.2 and the university's policy; an Overlap agent drafts consultation memos when another department's course matches; a Prerequisite agent finds loops and long chains; a Packet agent assembles the agenda; a Catalog agent prepares the page and checks its accessibility. The department chair submits, committees vote, and only the Registrar publishes, after a certified senate vote.
