SUMMARY:
Attached are recommendations with respect to conferral of degrees. Until the Regents have authorized the following institutions to award degrees, all academic awards are to be conferred on graduates by the Regents.
CERGE-EI
Gamla College
Professional Business College
The Office of College and University Evaluation has determined that the candidates listed in the attachment have satisfied all of the requirements for the awards indicated.
Recommendation: I recommend that the Regents take the following action:
VOTED, that the awards indicated be conferred upon the individuals as listed for each institution.
In September 2000, the Regents granted the Center for Economics Research and Graduate Education – Economics Institute (CERGE-EI), Prague, Czech Republic, a provisional charter. It authorizes CERGE-EI to confer the Master of Arts (M.A.) and Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) degrees. By the charter’s terms and until it is made absolute, the Regents confer the degrees. CERGE-EI is supported by Charles University, Prague, and the Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic. It offers registered M.A. and Ph.D. programs in economics.

Gamla College, a proprietary
institution, was granted a provisional charter by the Board of Regents on
December 20, 1996 authorizing the College to offer the Associate in Science
(A.S.) degree in Judaic Studies.
On June 22, 2004, the
Regents affirmed their December 12, 2003 determination to deny the extension of
Gamla College’s institutional accreditation, thereby making the College
ineligible for Title IV funds. Because the accreditation and State approval
functions of the Regents have been separated at the request
of the United
States Department of Education, the action taken by the Board in June did not
serve to rescind the registration of the College’s programs nor did it revoke
their provisional charter as a college. An institution with a provisional charter
has all the corporate powers and duties of an institution with an absolute
charter, except that in the case of institutions offering courses leading to
academic degrees, such degrees are conferred by the Board of Regents until the
charter has been made absolute. Consequently, the
College has the authority to continue to offer classes, and,
by the terms of the provisional charter, all academic awards
are to be conferred on graduates by the Regents.
