MAC Implementation Committee

Implementation Committee

The new General Education Program, Minerva’s Academic Curriculum (MAC), has the 11 competency working groups and the standing implementation subcommittee (IC) under the direction of the General Education Council (GEC). The GEC was empowered by the Faculty Senate to form and charge these committees. The IC will report to the GEC on curricular issues and to the Office of the Provost for administrative concerns. The GEC reserves the right to amend the following charges based on the needs of the MAC.

The IC will:

  • Advise the GEC on curricular issues related to implementation
  • Report to GEC with timely updates on progress
  • Send all curricular proposals to GEC for review and final voting
  • Communicate and work with the 11 competency working groups on issues related to implementation

Additionally, the IC will report to the Office of the Provost for the following:

  • Implementation timeline
  • CIM proposal/revision process
  • DegreeWorks and Banner implementation
  • Assessment process
  • Recertification process
  • Faculty development

The IC is composed of various campus stakeholders. They will serve in both an advisory role for curricular issues and in a decision-making role for administrative issues. GEC may adjust membership as needed.
