GENERAL EDUCATION REQUIREMENTS
In order that the diploma and certificate curricula will contain a requisite
increment of general education to satisfy the policy established by the State
Board for Community Colleges and still allow for maximum institutional and
individual flexibility, the following guidelines will apply:
1. Fifteen to twenty (15-20) percent of the credit-hour requirements should
include courses in general education, exclusive of specialized courses in the
major field, or supporting technical and theory courses in related fields. These
courses should be selected from the following:
| Communication Skills | Humanities |
| Health, Physical Education | Orientation |
| or Recreation | Social Science |
| Mathematics | Laboratory Sciences |
2. In satisfying the above requirement, repetition of a discipline is not
encouraged; the maximum number of courses allowable from any discipline should
be two.
