The Liberal Education Subcommittee is a subcommittee of the Faculty Senate.

Some minutes are missing.

Historical note: The Liberal Education Subcommittee was created as the Bylaws were being updated in late 2013 (approved June 2014). It did not have a direct predecessor pre-2013, though the (now inactive) Educational Policy Committee had some similar responsibilities.

From the 2020 Bylaws of the UMD Campus Governance: The Liberal Education Subcommittee is charged with overseeing the campus’ liberal education program. The Liberal Education Subcommittee works with other committees to review and strive toward continuous improvement of liberal education at UMD. The subcommittee will revise and oversee the course submission process for courses to become part of the Liberal Education Program (LEP); review, accept or reject all courses proposed for inclusion in the LEP; monitor the LEP and make recommendations to the Faculty Senate. The Liberal Education Subcommittee will work closely with members of the Assessment subcommittee and will report to the Faculty Senate.
