Dear Augsburg Community,
The 2023 General Education Revision proposal has received support in the initial stages of the shared governance process. Both the Academic Affairs Committee and the Faculty Senate voted in support of the proposed revisions. We are grateful to AAC co-chairs Ana Ribiero, HPE, and Jacob Enger, Business, to Faculty Senate President Bridget Robinson-Riegler, Psychology, and to the entire AAC and Faculty Senate committees for their thorough and detailed review of the proposal.
