3335-8-18 Standards for number of class sections.

The standards to be applied to the formation of class sections in a course are:

(A) When the registration in a course for a particular quarter is less than twenty-five students, it shall be taught in one section only.

(B) When the registration in a course for a particular quarter is less than fifty and more than twenty-five students, it shall be taught in not more than two sections.

(C) When the registration in a course for a particular quarter exceeds fifty students, the sections into which it is divided must be so formed that no section has less than twenty students.

(D) Where specialized methods of instruction are employed or where there are peculiar difficulties in student schedules, the application of these rules may be modified by the chair of the department and the dean of the college or the director of the school upon approval of the executive vice president and provost.

(E) The graduate professional colleges may formulate rules to govern the formation of class sections, subject to the approval of the council on academic affairs. (B/T 4/4/97, B/T 12/4/98, B/T 7/9/2004)
