Who is responsible for assessing the Core?
The Faculty Senate is ultimately responsible for ensuring that the Core Curriculum is assessed. The Committee for the Core Curriculum has been designated the task of coordinating the assessment process with the faculty and departments teaching toward Core Learning Goals. Since many Core Learning Goals are inherently part of the work conducted through programs, the CCC will work with programs to coordinate assessment of common goals. This will allow for meaningful and economical assessment because the CCC will draw down information about core goals from program assessment without imposing additional methods.
