That is what the Association of American Colleges and Universities hopes to accomplish with their new program. This university was selected to become one of the higher education institutions that will participate in General Education for a Global Century. By participating in GEGC, the current general education will be altered in minor ways that would create major effects. Since the change will be coming while the university is still in its developing years, any alterations made to pro- grams now will play their biggest roles in future Wolverine generations. Outlined within the program are the set of principles that list expected changes for each of the chosen institutions. The overview can be found on the AAC&U website. Other institutions that were selected include Carnegie Mellon University, Michigan State University, Oregon State University and College of William and Mary. They have started the process of integrating the GEGC program, which is planned to go from 2010-12, into their schools.

Creating such a change in the university's students will further improve our "engaged" stance on our surrounding world, which is what makes being a part of GEGC such a powerful and beneficial program for every Wolverine.
