Committee Overview
-
The Expanding and Enhancing the Learning Environment cluster chairs, Jennifer Karas and Danny McIntosh, worked with the academic units, Faculty Senate and Campus Life & Inclusive Excellence to create this committee. They invited all deans to nominate potential members, and self-nominations were also solicited.
From Doug Hesse's first email to the Committee:
"We will be utterly consultative with constituencies on campus, most centrally the faculty; thoroughly informed by best thought and practice on general education across the country, both in the professional literature and in campus practice; absolutely attentive to the unique mission, position, and resources at DU; grounded in analyses of our current general education program, our campus contexts and aspirations; and open to a range of intelligent possible outcomes, with nothing predetermined at the outset. (Pragmatism must surely and ultimately inflect any recommendations, but its entry can productively be delayed.)"More information?
