* Discussion of updates to this year's agenda
    
  CC is making adequate progress on the proposed agenda for 1995-96.
  Following is the meeting schedule for the remainder of this
  quarter and early next quarter:
  	Nov 14: Discussion of proposed "Introduction to High-Performance
  		Computing" course (694E is the pilot)
  	Nov 21: Discussion of content of proposed "revised 211" and
  		proposed combination with 101
  	Nov 28: Discussion of proposed changes to 222 and 321
  	Jan first meeting:  Try to make recommendation on revised 211/101
  	Jan second meeting: Try to make recommendation on revised 221/222/321
  	Jan third meeting:  Discussion of proposed standard ways of
  		writing official course objectives on CIS course syllabi
  		
* Discussion of proposed changes to networking curriculum

  CC suggested the following changes to the proposal:
    - Change proposed number 678 to 679 to avoid confusion with 778
      (the impression being that X78 involves VLSI design)
    - Add 660 as a prerequisite to 679
    
  CC voted to make two separate recommendations at the next faculty
  meeting:
    - Proposed changes to 677 and introduction of 679: "Internetworking"
    - Introduction of 777: "Telecommunication Networks"
