General Education Oversight Committee

General Education Oversight Committee

The General Education Oversight Committee charged with oversight of the general education curriculum. It hears appeals from faculty or departments whose course proposals are not approved; reviews course offerings approved for each requirement; and reviews assessment reports and continuous improvement plans for each core general education assessment outcome to determine whether further action is required.

As requested by the Curriculum Committee, GEOC periodically re-certifies courses to count for general education requirements. GEOC may also review certification as requested by other vested stakeholders. It recommends minor policy adjustments to the general education process and changes to general education SLOs when needed.

Number of Members: GEOC is chaired by the Director of General Education and composed of an elected member from each School.  The Director of Assessment is an ex officio (nonvoting) member.  The AVP for General Education can appoint additional ex officio members as needed.

Selection and Terms: One full-time faculty member elected by each of the schools (BSS, AHMX, MSB, NSCI); members serve staggered, two-year terms.

High Activity Times: Monthly meetings.
