Historical Summary

In 2014, the General Education Committee reviewed peer institutions' curriculum and surveyed Barnard faculty to evaluate and revise the existing Nine Ways of Knowing system. It presented three models, including a revised version of the current system, a thematic cluster model, and a Barnard-focused liberal arts model. The committee ultimately introduced the "Current Modes of Thinking" general education requirements.
