BLINN BOARD TO CERTIFY REVIEW OF GENERAL EDUCATION CURRICULUM
The Blinn Board of Trustees will meet on Tuesday to certify the review of the College’s general education curriculum.
Senate Bill 37, passed during the 89th Texas Legislative Session, requires the governing board of each institution of higher education to conduct a comprehensive review of the institution’s general education curriculum at least once every five years.
The review, per the language of the law, is to ensure that the courses in the curriculum are foundational and fundamental to a sound postsecondary education, are necessary to prepare students for civic and professional life, equip students to participate in the workforce and the betterment of society, and ensure a range of knowledge in compliance with applicable accreditation standards.
In other business, trustees will hear monthly administrative and financial reports. They will also receive a presentation on the proposed 2026-27 Fiscal Year budget.
The board will meet Tuesday at 10 a.m. in the second floor banquet room of the Bryan Campus Administration Building, 2608 East Villa Maria Road. The meeting will be livestreamed on Blinn College’s YouTube channel.
