SECTION AI: SPECIAL ACTIONS AI.1 DEPARTMENT OF MEDIA CULTURE RESOLVED, that the Master of Arts in Cinema and Media Studies, NYSED IRP 002849, HEGIS CODE 1010.00, be discontinued with a sunset date of July1, 2022. RATIONALE: The Department of Media Culture, due to low enrollment and a sustained decline in viable applications, approved to discontinue the MA in Cinema and Media Studies. The Department is working with the students currently enrolled and anticipate that these students will be finished on or before the Spring 2022. The Department will be devoting all their time and energy to their undergraduates. APPROVAL: Department of Media Culture 11/19; Graduate Studies 12/9/19

Credits/Hours: No Change Requirement: No Change

Courses: COR 100: United States Issues Ideas and Institutions is required for all students who began their academic career at CSI.

Courses: Options vary. One course from a list of approved FUSR courses.

Notes: Non-CSI transfer students may satisfy this requirement with alternative USED courses from their prior CUNY coursework. However, if possible, these students are encouraged to complete COR 100 as their flexible sixth course.

(NB: currently, these courses are AAD 160 African American History: 1619 to the Present (FUSR)(RLA); AAD 167 The Black Experience (FUSR); COR 100 United States: Issues, Ideas, and Institutions (FUSR); HON 122 The Peopling of New York (FUSR); and POL 100 American Government and Politics (FUSR))

Notes: Students are able to select courses that can also satisfy prerequisite or pre-major requirements for their degree. Further discussion with an advisor is recommended.

(NB: added language mimics that for other categories in the Flexible Core)

TOTAL NUMBER OF CREDITS: No change TOTAL NUMBER OF CREDITS: No Change EFFECTIVE: Fall 2020 RATIONALE: Many academic departments and programs have expressed interest in offering new courses in the U.S. Experience in its Diversity category of the Common Flexible Core of General Education; requiring students to take CORE 100 inhibits them from accessing a diversity of course offerings from departments and degree programs that match the learning goals of the category; and the designation of CORE 100 as the required course within the U.S. Experience in its Diversity category of the Common Flexible Core does not comply with CUNY Pathways rules communicated to the College in 2019. This motion is co-sponsored all Department list below in the approval.

COREQUISITE: N/A

PRE OR COREQUISITE: N/A

CREDITS: 4

HOURS: 4

CATALOG DESCRIPTION: An introduction to the linguistics of American Sign Language (ASL). Students will be introduced to linguistic theories in general, and of sign languages in particular. It aims to introduce basic concepts involved in the study of the ASL phonology, morphology, morphosyntax, non-manual expressions, syntax, semantics, and pragmatics. ASL will be analyzed from a cross-linguistic and cross-modal point of view. Attention will be focused on how sign language phonology interacts with the perceptual and production system involved in the visual-gestural modality on the one hand, and other areas of grammar such as morphology and syntax on the other. Focus will be given to how the morphological structure of sign languages is shaped and influenced by their modality-specific features, such as the use of space, availability of paired manual articulators, as well as the simultaneous layering of non-manual signals with the manual ones. Major inflections and derivations, and other aspects in ASL such as basic word order, sentence types, constituent order in simple and complex clauses, interrogatives, fronting, negation and confirmation, will also be discussed and compared with those of other selected sign and spoken languages. The students will perform linguistic analysis of ASL including individual signs, sign utterances and sign discourses to develop the skills to identify and code ASL linguistic categories and levels. The course will not satisfy the foreign language requirement.
