General Education Requirements

As faculty begin to modify courses to meet the new requirements, please feel free to reach out to us in LEDS. We would be happy to sit down with you to consider ways your syllabus could be tweaked and brainstorm a variety of media-rich assignments or projects that might help you meet your learning objectives.
