Rather than waiting for Curricular Review legislation to restructure general education requirements, Tatar said she wanted to develop widely accessible humanities courses geared toward underclassmen. “These will be courses that bridge between the Core and whatever we have when we have it,” Tatar said. Most of the courses are not fully developed yet, but a few will likely be launched next year.
