GE Governance Board (AY 2021-2022)

For information on the current year, please visit the main GEGB webpage here: ge.calpoly.edu/governance/gegb.


 

Charges by the Academic Senate:

  • Review and modify committee procedures and bylaws as needed. Ongoing
  • Review of curriculum proposals: catalog cycle proposals and continuous course review proposal. Ongoing
  • Submit revised GE PLOs. AY 2021-2022
  • Continue with the GE recertification process¹. AY 2021-22
  • Continued consideration and discussion of GE pathways. AY 2021-2022

¹Please note: "Recertification" refers to current GE courses that are up for review. These courses might be recertified, decertified, or deactivated. Together, we refer to this set of courses as the "recertification proposals," regardless of which of the three actions they are seeking. These courses differ from "new" proposals, which refer to those that have never before been offered in GE.
 

Duties:

  1. Review and approve GE course proposals.
  2. Place GE curriculum proposals on the Academic Senate consent agenda after consultation with the Academic Senate Curriculum Committee.
  3. Engage in appropriate assessment activities. Be proactive and responsive to the results of assessment activities.
  4. Conduct a GE academic program review on the same cycle as other programs. Findings will be presented to the college deans and the Academic Senate. The GEGB needs to be proactive and responsive to the  recommendations that result from academic program review.
