PROPOSAL 2  The Graduation Task Force proposes:
that each discipline or program adopt a capstone course for itself, to be reviewed and approved by the University Curriculum Committee, and that this course be an additional graduation requirement. Small departments may not have the time or resources to create or offer a capstone course alone; thus, a College may have an a capstone course shared by different disciplines in the college, as may, e.g., a division (LAS). Students in the capstone course would be expected to demonstrate proficiency in GE objectives (library research, writing, speech, math, critical thinking), and the products that they produce in the course would be assessable by GEP assessment as well as whatever goals the department/program had for its major. Existing courses, or modified existing courses, could be proposed. This capstone course would take the place of the I&P requirement, which would be done away with as part of the GE program.
