GOAL: Review the draft 3.0 documents and provide feedback to build a more complete document.

  • Positive time at MC
  • Focus on retention is important
  • Time constraints when collaborating with faculty and staff.  How to connect staff with the faculty’s initiatives for growth with time constraints?
  • For the theme, learn through play. PLAY….
  • How often we would stay with themes? A long term theme would be important vs. changing it every year or so.
  • For retention-ask students what they plan to do, right away. Like what Carol Barr has done with retention. Unified experience with freshman seminar is working.
  • Retention and outreach to non-Athlete and non-AR. Need programs and co-curricular that relate to our general students. Initiatives like the Markarian Colony and gaming; ultimate Frisbee that uniquely engage students could be a part of the community by design and growth
  • Connect general education focused faculty so they can work on how they approach entrepreneurial faculty. This group could pilot a theme together.
  • Organize our general eds on tracks around themes could allow faculty and student to engage in areas that interest and motivate them
  • How can we engage the community to take classes were there is space?
