The Intersegmental Committee
of the Academic Senates (ICAS)
The Intersegmental Committee of the Academic Senates (ICAS) was
established by faculty in 1980 as a voluntary organization consisting
of representatives of the Academic Senates of the three segments of
public higher education in California. Each of the senates appoint five
or six senate leaders as representatives to ICAS. The meetings of ICAS
are financed by the segments and deal with a variety of issues of mutual
concern such as student preparation for postsecondary education, the
California Master Plan for Higher Education, access, transfer, articulation,
general education, and educational quality and standards. The recommendations
of ICAS are made to the Academic Senates of each of the three segments.
ICAS advises not only the senates of public higher education but also
education officials and policy makers in California. It does not directly
implement higher education policy.
Since 1980 the leading issues handled by ICAS have included
the development of a series of Statements on Competencies Expected of
Entering Freshmen, and the development and implementation of the Intersegmental
General Education Transfer Curriculum (IGETC). In each of these areas
there have been some impressive successes for students and faculties
of the segments.
