Senate Approves Physical Therapy Doctorate,Postpones Decision on Nursing Practice
The University Senate voted on Jan.31 to approve a clinical doctorate inphysical therapy, once again postponingaction on another doctoral program, innursing practice. The legislature alsolearned of new editorial guidelines forthe publication of the Senate column inthe University Record, and unanimous-ly approved a new master’s degree incomputer engineering.
The Education Committee had rec-ommended action on the physicaltherapy doctorate (DTP) even thoughit had not yet seen a final version ofnew standards for clinical doctoratesthat it had requested of Health Sci-ences Vice President Gerald Fischbachlast term. Committee chair LettyMoss-Salentijn (Ten., SDOS)explained to the Senate that the pro-posed program exceeds standardsrecently set for the DPT by a nationalaccrediting agency, and said immedi-ate action was needed for Columbia tobe able to offer the degree next yearand remain competitive in the field. Anaddition to the DPT resolution calledfor another review of the program afterthe Senate approves the new standardsfor clinical doctorates.
This argument convinced the Sen-ate, which voted for the DPTwith onlyone opposed and four abstentions,including the three Nursing senators.Suzanne Bakken (Ten., Nursing) saidshe had no objection to the DPT, butcalled attention to the different treat-ment accorded the proposed Doctor ofNursing Practice (DrNP), which mustawait approval of the new standards.
Though the DrNP cleared the Edu-cation Committee last October, a
month before the DPT, it has hadrougher sailing in the Senate, withextensive debate over the course of twoplenary meetings in November, andtwo more postponements. In a memo tofellow senators before the Jan. 31 meet-ing, Executive Committee chairmanPaul Duby (Ten., SEAS) said “reserva-tions have been expressed and ques-tions have been raised much less aboutthe concept of this new degree thanabout the design of this particular pro-gram. They suggest that the currentDrNP is not yet ready for Senateaction.”
In his regular report Duby alsoannounced the adoption of new editori-al guidelines for the Senate column inthe University Record, prepared bySens. Jonathan Cole (the provost),Sharyn O’Halloran (Ten., A&S/Soc.Sci.) and Roosevelt Montas (Stu.,GSAS/Hum), and approved unani-mously by the Executive Committee.Duby said that the new procedures hadbeen in effect for the last Senate col-umn, published on January 24, andadded that there would have been noproblems with the three previouscolumns if the guidelines had been inplace last fall.
They provide a procedure to resolvedisagreements about the content of thecolumn, leaving final say with the edi-tor of the Record, but specifying threegrounds for changes (apart from stylis-tic considerations and length): inaccura-cy, libel, and breaches of confidentiality.In such cases, the editor will explain thechanges in writing.
The Senate meets next on March 7 inthe Davis Auditorium in Schapiro Engi-neering. Anyone with a CUID is wel-come. More information is available onthe web at www.columbia.edu/cu/senate.

Columbia Welcomes Samsung Electronics
Inside Im’s Lab—Professor James Im, center, of Materials Science gives a tour of his lab tovisitors from the display group within Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd., including Sang-Wan Lee, president,AMLCD Division, seated; Executive Vice President Jun-Hyung Souk, left, and and Hyun-Jae Kim, rear,Ph.D. & SEAS alum, Manager, Research Team, AMLCD Division, Device Solution Network.
Samsung Electronics, a leader in worldwide semiconductor production, is pursuing interest in manyaspects of advanced semiconductor manufacturing technologies. Their visit to James Im's laboratoryenabled them to be briefed on the latest developments under way at Columbia.
Im's Sequential Lateral Solidification (SLS) is a laser annealing process that transforms amorphous sil-icon into crystalline silicon, which is made into thin films, which are used to make thin film transistors. Thinfilm transistors are the fundamental control device in flat panel displays.
