What place will the academic disciplines have in a goal-directed general education program that transcends individual disciplines?
The disciplines are not going away. There will still be academic departments with the same names we have today. There is no reason that the new model would not include any department that currently participates in the all-university requirements. The goal of this reform effort, after all, is to make the general education program more rigorous in skills and knowledge and certainly not less extensive. It will also, however, provide the opportunity to create multi-disciplinary and inter-disciplinary offerings. The best aspects of our current program can be integrated into the new program, along with exciting, innovative, and imaginative offerings that invigorate the curriculum.
