WSU is embarking on a comprehensive, system-wide effort to re-envision the future of general education. With the current general education curriculum, UCORE, now in its 15th year, this work offers an important opportunity to ensure WSU’s model continues to meet the needs of today’s students while remaining true to the university’s land-grant mission. To guide this multi‑year effort, the Provost’s Office, in partnership with the Faculty Senate, has convened the General Education Visioning Committee chaired by Vice Provost Bill Davis.

Angela Mitchell, Director of the Writing Program, has announced that Jeannie Griffin Bennett has been hired as Writing Center Director for the Pullman campus. Along with her dedication to peer tutoring as a model for effective student learning, Dr. Bennett also brings a spirit of collaboration and inquiry to the Writing Center.
