GE Task Force 2017-18

In response to the 2015-2016 General Education (GE) program review, then-Provost Kathleen Enz Finken formed a GE Task Force (GETF) to consider the results of the review and provide recommendations for a new vision of GE at Cal Poly. The GETF included students, faculty, and staff representatives from all six of Cal Poly's colleges, as well as the GE Governance Board, Office of University Diversity and Inclusion, University Advising, Office of the Registrar Registrar, and Academic Programs and Planning.
