General Education Reform
Committee on Educational Policy: General Education Reform History
For current GE information go to CEP’s page on General Education Requirements for Course Development
The larger goals of GE reform were:
To converge through faculty conversation on a set of educational goals for general education at UCSC at the beginning of the 21st Century
(Our last major general education reform occurred 25 years ago)
To make those goals more explicit and clear than they have been in the past
To make the General Education curriculum more topics-based and less division-based
To make General Education more interesting and reflective of UCSC’s Identity
The senate passed legislation proposed by CEP for general education reform in Winter and Spring quarters of 2009.
