EMU Today

The General Education Program at Eastern Michigan University (GE) has begun a self-study as part of the Provost’s three-year General Education Review plan. In the first phase, GE is conducting a review of the program’s goal(s). Part of this process will also involve aligning proposed goals for GE with the University Mission Statement, and the other part is engaging stakeholders in exploring desired, proposed, or possible goals for GE. 

To keep the campus community informed of the GE Study process, a website has been created. The website includes an overview of the GE Study’s purpose and links to other important information, such as the Higher Learning Commission’s gen ed guidelines and recommended readings. The GE Study Team has included a survey on the website to collect feedback about the GE program and identify whether and how you’d like to participate in the GE Study. The survey is open to all members of the EMU community, and you are welcome to complete the survey as many times as you wish. 

You can also access the survey directly from this link: Gen Ed Self-Study Program Goals Survey
