Re: feedback needed for OCHE Guide to High School for College Credit

I still think this following statement is opening a can of worms that will eventually lead to a significant PR nightmare for the system. Essentially, this provision combined with the fact that there are no standards as to how the course will be posted on a transcript results in one school being able to determine transferability/articulation from a high school into any and all colleges in the state.  Please consider this from a faculty perspective before you move forward or approve.

 

Note:  All courses that have gone through Common Course Numbering and are locally articulated will be accepted throughout the Montana University System.  Students and Parents are responsible to work with college and high school counselors and advisors to research determine how coursework will transfer and whether it will satisfy particular program requirements.

 

Does no one else see this as a significant issue?  Am I missing something?
