Motion that the OFFICE.CODE related to Communications Management for documents that were used but should not be used again use the codes: ZAD-Don’t Use-Admissions, ZFA-Don’t Use-Financial Aid, ZRR-Don’t Use-Records/Registration be approved for recommendation for President’s Cabinet for approval as presented:
Kelley reported CORE’s recommendation was to use codes: ZD, ZA and ZR in keeping with the two character consistency by just replacing the first letter with a Z. Discussion on these codes occurred. Perry explained since these codes will not be widely used and when one moves a document over it’s not changing the name of the document just the office it is associated with, therefore it is not as necessary to keep them two characters and recommended what was motioned.

Motion that the Academic Program codes with one correction of under code CUST_PROF computer to read customer be approved for recommendation for President’s Cabinet for approval as presented:
Jean explained the naming convention: the first 4 characters are the major, underscore ( _ ) means it’s a certificate/professional and a dot ( . ) an applied or associates degree. CE-Continuing Education was kept as CE because of it’s recognizably. CESYSTEMASSIGNE is a default CE program which automatically assigns the CE program to a record. Programs were also created to coincide with the educational goals on the application screen and for Academic Affairs reporting.
