Core Curriculum Advisory Committee

The Core Curriculum Advisory Committee (CCAC) is a faculty committee of seven members who are tasked with maintaining the integrity of the core curriculum and serving as a resource for instructors of the Core. The committee supports and ensures that the instructors of all ranks and at all levels of the Core convey the specific objectives of the vision and that these objectives are pursued in the classroom or laboratory. The CCAC has a rotating roster of faculty members representing the key areas of the core vision:

Christian Tradition: Joe Coker, REL [term expires August 2028]
Civic Engagement: Rebecca Flavin, PSC [term expires August 2027]
Creativity: Winter Rusiloski, ART [term expires August 2028]
Critical Reasoning: Anne-Marie Schultz, PHI [term expires August 2026]
Scientific Method: Karenna Malavanti, CHE [term expires August 2027]
At-Large: Xin Wang, MLC [term expires August 2028]
At-Large: Bob Elder, HIS [term expires August 2026]
Ex Officio: Ginger Hanchey, Director of the Core
Ex Officio: Patrick Broaddus, A&S Dean's Office

The Core Curriculum Advisory Committee welcomes inquiries and proposals for additions and revisions to core classes.
