The Seaver Academic Council is the chief policy-making body for academic procedures, policies, and requirements for Seaver
College at Pepperdine University. It reviews proposals submitted by faculty members or administrators for changes or additions
to the curriculum, graduation requirements, and general academic policies. The proposals and changes approved by the Seaver
Academic Council are then taken to the University Academic Council for final approval.
The collection consists of meeting minutes and agendas, memorandums, forms, proposals for new or revised course offerings,
and reports on courses and other academic issues within Seaver College. Materials in the collection span from 1974 to 1996.
The collection is arranged chronologically.
The University Academic Council records 0094 contain similar materials, but more broadly for academic changes at Pepperdine
University's five schools.
The collection was arranged and described by Jessica Geiser and Jamie Henricks in March, 2013.
