The Annual College Forum: GenEd and ARHU: Where do we go from Here?

It is widely believed that the change in 2012 from CORE to GenEd contributed to steep downturns in ARHU undergraduate enrollments. How can we determine GenEd’s impact on ARHU? What are the strengths and weaknesses of the GenEd system, for undergraduate education at the University of Maryland, and for ARHU? And how can we make changes to the system, to revivify the arts and humanities and ensure that all Maryland undergraduates receive a great general education? Join Associate Dean for Genderal Education, Offce of Undergraduate Studies, Douglas Roberts, Associate Dean for Academic Affairs, College of Arts and Humanities, Alene Moyer and Associate Director, School of Languages, Literatrues and Cultures Mary Ellen Scullen for a discussion of the upsides and downsides of GenEd, and the best ways to move forward.
