Item 2003 Annual Report(University of Minnesota Tourism Center, 2003)Annual Report from the University of Minnesota Tourism Center 2003Item Access: The General College Magazine(University of Minnesota: General College, 2002) University of Minnesota: General CollegeItem Access: The General College Magazine(University of Minnesota: General College, 2003) University of Minnesota: General CollegeItem Access: The General College Magazine(University of Minnesota: General College, 2005-05-23) University of Minnesota: General CollegeThe current attempt to make the University one of the top three publicly funded research institutions in the world would come at a cost to the citizens of Minnesota. Of necessity we will have to recast the notion of the “land-grant university” to fit with contemporary politics and to limit access in order to foster an illusion of excellence and exclusivity. I differ with the current administration in principle over the issue of access. The inscription above Northrop Auditorium refers to all youth—not differentiated by social class origins, race or ethnicity, gender or sexual preference. Seventy-three years ago University President Lotus Coffman proposed the establishment of a program that would increase access and ease the transition of students into the rigors of academic life. Since then, the General College has fulfilled this mission and earned the reputation of being the nation’s premier developmental education program.Item Access: The General College Magazine(University of Minnesota: General College, 2006-02-14) University of Minnesota: General CollegeOn campus, it’s a bad time to be a creature of habit! Higher education faces an unprecedented convergence of pressures. The University of Minnesota must change in profound ways or it will wither. The resulting ambitious strategic positioning process being worked through at the University this year brings daily challenges and opportunities. Many readers of Access are aware that under this plan General College will be part of the reorganization of six current colleges into three new colleges. Beginning in July, we will be part of the new College of Education and Human Development.Item Access: The General College Magazine(University of Minnesota: General College, 2002) University of Minnesota: General CollegeItem Access: The General College Magazine(University of Minnesota: General College, 2006-04-27) University of Minnesota: General CollegeAs we get ready to close up General College at the end of June, after 74 years, we are roused toward hope by the vitality all around us. We are well on the way toward realizing the major structural changes to emerge from the University’s Strategic Positioning process. The academic heart of General College will be reconfigured on July 1 as the new Department of Postsecondary Teaching and Learning. Our advising and student support services will re-emerge in the Student and Professional Services department. We look forward to another year of intense program building in the new College of Education and Human Development.Item Access: The General College Magazine(University of Minnesota: General College, 2004) University of Minnesota: General CollegeItem Access: The General College Magazine(University of Minnesota: General College, 2002) University of Minnesota: General CollegeItem Access: The General College Magazine(University of Minnesota: General College, 2001) University of Minnesota: General CollegeItem Access: The General College Magazine(University of Minnesota: General College, 2005-10-14) University of Minnesota: General CollegeIn his strategic positioning plan, adopted by the Board of Regents in June 2005, President Bob Bruininks has challenged the University to change. The Regents have set the bar high for academic improvements, with a 10-year aspiration that the University emerge as one of the top three public research universities in the world. That Strategic Positioning Initiative (www1.umn.edu/systemwide/strategic_positioning/) makes 40 recommendations affecting nearly every corner of the Twin Cities campus, including the merger of six colleges into three. Under the plan, General College will become a department in a transformed College of Education and Human Development.Item Access: The General College Magazine(University of Minnesota: General College, 2003) University of Minnesota: General CollegeItem Access: The General College Magazine(University of Minnesota: General College, 2004) University of Minnesota: General CollegeItem Access: The General College Magazine(University of Minnesota: General College, 2003) University of Minnesota: General CollegeItem Access: The General College Magazine(University of Minnesota: General College, 2004-11-02) University of Minnesota: General CollegeThe mission of Access is to tell the General College story, whether through the teaching, research, and advising of our talented and committed faculty and staff or via the accomplishments of our students and alumni. In this issue, we introduce a new feature, “From the Archives.” As GC approaches its 75th anniversary in 2007, we will look at a noteworthy item from the General College Archives that, we hope, illuminates an important, but forgotten aspect of our legacy.Item Annual Report 2006-2007: Transforming how higher education serves the world(University of Minnesota: College of Education and Human Development, 2007) University of Minnesota: College of Education and Human DevelopmentTransforming how higher education serves the worldItem Beyond Butts in Seats: Creating campus and community partnerships through meaningful outreach(2015) Farrell, Shannon L.; Mastel, KristenIn order to stay relevant and meet the needs of our existing and potential users, libraries are forming partnerships and engaging users in numerous ways outside of the classroom. How do we measure the impact of our outreach programming? High attendance numbers may show that we had excellent swag and food at an event, but is counting heads a meaningful assessment measure? This poster will share examples of various kinds of outreach, discuss opportunities for forging partnerships, consider the impact of different outreach activities, and examine new assessment strategies to move beyond simple head counts.Item Cleveland Neighborhood Revitalization Program Evaluation.(2001) Brock, Amy and Taimur Malik.Item Connect [Fall 2018](University of Minnesota: College of Education and Human Development, 2018) University of Minnesota: College of Education and Human DevelopmentItem Connect [Fall 2019](University of Minnesota: College of Education and Human Development, 2019) University of Minnesota: College of Education and Human Development
