Administration of Core

In order to introduce stability and integrity to the Core, as well as to ensure consistency and cohesion among the courses that students may select to satisfy Core requirements, the Core is governed by a Director of the University Core Curriculum in the Liberal Arts (UCCLA) who acts with the advice and consent of the University Core Committee (UCC). 

The Director is appointed to a renewable three-year term by the Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences.  This person will be responsible for the day to day management of the details of implementing the UCCLA.  The UCC will oversee the development of the Core, making recommendations to the Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences on courses that might be proposed as first-year seminars, international courses, diversity courses, writing intensive courses or as the particular courses from a given department that will satisfy the requirements of the Core. 

See the Core Committee Members page for composition of the UCC.
