The overall design of the curriculum, the array and content of the major and minor courses of study and the methods of delivery are regularly reviewed and updated. A competitive curriculum must adapt to changes in knowledge, student needs, delivery strategies and the expectations of employers and professional schools. Preserving the core qualities of the curriculum while being responsive to competition requires the constant attention of faculty who are actively engaged in their disciplines. . . . Beyond the classroom, students have access to a broad array of services and programs that support their personal and professional development. These programs help students adjust to the university and develop leadership skills.
Specialized support is provided for disabled students.
In addition, students are provided opportunities to participate in a wide range of extracurricular programs, service learning and social activities. . . . We have created a technologically advanced learning environment in which appropriate technologies are available to students, faculty and staff. These range from ready access to computer technology, to multimedia resources in classrooms to a modern administrative information system. Students need to know they are safe in the classrooms, in the residence halls and on the campus grounds. They must be safe and feel secure.
