2. Substituting Degree Cognates for Individual Students – message from Maria Cimitile
Effective immediately, the approval for substituting degree cognates for individual students should be requested through College Deans Offices. The online Curriculum Development Process on the faculty governance website should be used for adding, changing, or dropping degree cognates from a program. Thank you for your help.

Interim Assistant Vice President for Academic Affairs
3. Save the Date – Patricia Roehling – January 20th
We are writing to invite you and your students to a lecture on Wednesday, January 20, by Patricia Roehling, Professor and Chair of Psychology at Hope College.
Title: "Balancing Work and Family: A Challenge for the Millennial Generation"
Time and Place: 2:30 - 4:30 p.m., Cook-DeWitt Center, Allendale campus (lecture, followed by conversation led by students)
Roehling's lecture will be based on The Career Mystique: Cracks in the American Dream (Rowman & Littlefield, 2005), which she co-authored with Phyllis Moen. The book addresses "the fundamental mismatch between the ways work, family, and retirement are organized and the realities of a changing work force and an uncertain global economy."
For more information on the book, including an interview with its authors, go to
