UNIVERSITY COMMUNICATIONS
The first two proposals for UNL's new general education program, Achievement-Centered Education, have been sent to the eight undergraduate colleges.
![](http://www.unl.edu/unlpub/graphics/transpixel.gif) According to John Janovy Jr., chair of the General Education Advisory Committee, the proposals pertain to institutional objectives and student learning outcomes, and structural criteria.
![](http://www.unl.edu/unlpub/graphics/transpixel.gif) Individuals in the colleges are asked to review the proposals prior to discussion and consideration according to each college's governance procedures. Specific questions should be directed to Janovy or a GEAC representative. A list of the representatives, the two proposals, frequently asked questions and a review of the ACE program to date, are available online at www.unl.edu/svcaa/gened.
![](http://www.unl.edu/unlpub/graphics/transpixel.gif) College approval of the two proposals does not create a new general education program. Janovy said nothing can be implemented until all four planned proposals are approved.
![](http://www.unl.edu/unlpub/graphics/transpixel.gif) "The GEAC asks that you consider Proposals 1 and 2 on their own merits and in return promises to consult broadly on the development of Proposals 3 and 4," Janovy said in a Nov. 27 e-mail. "You will have additional opportunities for shaping and voting on a new general education program."
