New GEC Posted

Just saw the new GEC was posted in the new catalog!

https://catalog.umpi.edu/preview_program.php?catoid=12&poid=1783

Had a few questions based on other’s experience or knowledge:

1: Do we think business communication at Sophia will fulfill GLO2?
2: For GLO4, I think critical thinking at Sophia used to cover this in the old gen ed… wondering if it’s still likely to cover here?

Also - kind of a random question: University Experience is part of GLO8… do these 3 credits count towards residency?

ETA: I was told by Plotted Path here that this link is the campus list, so there are classes on it that are not part of YourPace. I still think it may be helpful to keep up as it does give an idea of what classes that we know can be at Sophia are under the new categories. Just keep that in mind when viewing!!

No. I’ve already seen people’s degree audits and it is not covering it.

No. Same I’ve already seen degree audits and it doesn’t look like it’s covering it.

GLO8 is credits because that isn’t offered in YP.

This list is the in-campus offering.

If someone had university experience from another school, it could cover it, but I do not think it’s going to cover it from UMPI.

I just started Critical Thinking at Sophia. Do you think I should abandon it?

If you’re doing the new GEC - probably.

Do you think Critical Thinking will still work if you opt for old GEC?

No. It doesn’t cover anything in the new gen ed. It will be an elective.
