Fall 2009

Last March, the Faculty Senate adopted a new set of guidelines for new and revised programs at PNC. The guidelines consolidated a core of coursework that all programs at PNC have in common, and set out the form which which faculty and administrators can consider and demonstrate how students in their programs become proficient in PNC's General Education Goals throughout their time at the university. The document is available through the link at the upper right.

This year, the General Education Committee is continuing work on assessment of General Education Goals. The First-Year Experience Pilot Program is also continuing in an expanded form this semester, with six sections and approximately 80 students.
