Abstract

The mission of the General College (GC)/College of Education and Human Development (CEHD) task force was to develop a set of recommendations for designing a new college that would build on the strengths of GC, CEHD, the Department of Family Social Science and the School of Social Work in order to become a national model for teaching, learning, and human development, consistent with the University’s goal to become one of the top three public research universities in the world.
