"As a member of the university council working on a revision of undergraduate general education requirements, I found the articles in JGE of particular relevance. The timely studies encouraged by the editorial board promise to create a forum for lively exchange on educational issues." —Julia Herschensohn, University of Washington

For faculty, administrators, and policymakers, JGE is the professional forum for discussing issues in general education today. JGE addresses the general education concerns of community colleges, four-year colleges, universities, and state systems. Along with perceptive essays on the role of general education today, JGE features articles on:

Innovative methods in teaching and assessment
Profiles of exemplary general education programs
Case studies of successful curriculum development efforts
Reviews of books and monographs related to general education
Special quarterly issues focused on a particular general education issue or problem are important. If individuals have an idea for a special quarterly issue, then proposals should be sent to Dr. .
