Resources: General Education Review
-
General Education review is underway. To assist in this effort, the Senate's Academic Planning Committee has assembled this page of background resources. They are grouped by topic or journal, ordered within folders by year of publication, and titled to reflect the primary theme of the piece. They mostly date from after 2008, which was the last year that the university engaged in a comprehensive review of General Education. These resources are continuously updated. If you have recommendations for additional materials that should be posted to this site, please contact Dean Saitta (page editor) at dsaitta@du.edu.
