This request is to revise the names of three courses in the RN-BSN program of study.

The new names apply to courses already approved by the Faculty Association CHANGE NUR 4XXX, Community and Social Policy (3 cr.); NUR 4XXXC, Clinical V (2 cr.); NUR 4XXX, Transition Concepts (2 cr.) TO NUR 4XXX, Community Partnerships (3 cr.); NUR 4XXXL, Community Nursing Practice (2 cr.); NUR 4XXX, Role Transition (2 cr.). No new faculty needed. No resources needed.
