Dear John, General education programs are the foundation of a student's undergraduate experience, yet they are rarely prioritized with the same level of importance as major-specific classes. A thoughtfully designed gen ed curriculum should meaningfully connect with a student's major, develop critical-thinking and writing skills, and inspire both students and faculty. The Chronicle's new issue brief, Reforming Gen Ed: Strategies for Success on Your Campus, offers insight into the importance of regularly assessing your gen ed curriculum, explores the key elements of a 21st-century curriculum, and gives you in-depth case studies with concrete strategies and advice. Gain insight into:Assessing your institution's readiness and expectations for gen ed reformSetting appropriate goals and getting buy-in from key roles and departmentsDeveloping the right strategy for your campusIdentifying potential obstacles and conflict that may surface during the processYour students will graduate into an increasingly complex and competitive world. Order this issue brief and ensure they have the skills and knowledge they need to be successful. Best,Erin Erin GajarsaDirector The Chronicle of Higher Education 1255 Twenty-Third St., N.W.Washington, D.C. 20037
