I'm leery of combining goals. We emphasize different facets of a subject of skill depending on how we choose to categorize it. Part of the difference is due to the literature. That phrase was offered by one of the Task Force members who is not here today. Historical study of an issue could include perspectives from history, economics, political science, natural sciences, etc.
History is only one of the ways.
I'm confused about where the goals are listed. Department goals are parallel. The day we did this work, we decided to develop an inclusive list. NCA defines General Education as being the same for every student, and as providing every student with the education that is essential to a college graduate without regard to their area of specialization. So our list has to be inclusive.
