Curricular Renewal Work Group
The Taskforce on Balancing Mission and Resources recommended "reviewing and reorganizing the curriculum to enhance undergraduate education and promote curricular vitality." The Taskforce observed that the curriculum is an important factor in determining the resources available for achieving goals like competitive faculty salaries and a four course teaching load, and suggested that a curriculum review represents an "opportunity to innovate and to realign curriculum with changes in knowledge and the interests of contemporary students."
