Four Course System Evaluated by Students and Faculty
A Curriculum Committee poll shows about one third of students answered and a smaller fraction of faculty replied. Major findings include 84 percent supporting a reading week, 91 percent backing pass fail, and strong interest in expanded honors options and independent study.

Open forums aim to refine proposals and improve cross campus collaboration with Columina.
