Message from the Chair Welcome to the General Education Division home page. Our division oversees the General Education Program, the curriculum and co-curricular experiences that are shared by all undergraduate students. The General Education Program is the breadth component of a liberal education that (1) equips students with foundational knowledge and skills; (2) encourages students to investigate diverse fields of study, from the fine arts to the natural and social sciences, from the ancient texts of the Bible to the complex issues of today’s world; and (3) challenges students to integrate diverse learning experiences and Christian perspectives in the development of a personal worldview. Through active engagement in a community of learners, students are empowered to cultivate the knowledge, skills, and attitudes that will prepare them to be thoughtful, spiritually mature, service-oriented persons who will have a transforming impact on society. The General Education Division now also offers two new undergraduate degrees: the B.A. in Liberal Arts and the B.S. in Cross-Disciplinary Studies. These are individually designed, interdisciplinary degrees that encourage students to integrate diverse fields of study in unique ways according to their personal interests and professional goals. We encourage you to explore these new opportunities for learning.
