College proposes project 90 for curriculum
By Betsy Lantz
A new expanded liberal studies core
and a new departmental structure were
recently proposed to the Mercyhurst
community by the college administra-
tion as part of a report entitled Project
90. The report also Included proposals
for a faculty development program, a
Dr. William P. Garvey
departmental self-evaluation, and the
creation of a freshman support
program. i ministered to incoming freshmen who
"We have provided for a lot of the
needs ot the first Master Plan," Col-
lege President Or, William P. Garvey
said. "The college Is In good financial
health, it has a steady enrollment, and
Its facilities have been brought up to
date. Now in the second five-year
Master Plan of this administration, it Is
time to move the college in a quantum
leap forward on the academic scene."
"This is the time when a college
begins to look very carefully at itself,
asking 'How is it that we can polish our
institution - our curriculum - in order to
set our sights on reallyt)ecoming a col-
lege of quality and excellence?'," add-
ed Academic Dean Dr. David Palmer.
"It Is an institution-wide self-analysis."
As stated in the report's preface by
Dr. Garvey, these proposals are simply
ideas, which "await the reaction, sug-
gestion, clarification and revision of
the entire Mercyhurst community
before Implementation in 1986-87."
The proposed general studies core,
to replace the present Foundation,
Distribution and Senior Cores, would
Include required courses In four areas.
A Literacy Core would emphasize the
basic skills of writing, research,
mathematical; and philosophical!
reasoning, scientific thinking, and
computer understanding. A Western
Heritage Core would be based on
Western traditions and American
heritage, while a Contemporary World
Core would address non-Western
cultures, American government and
p o l i t i c s , w o r l d p r o b l e m s and
economics. The final Human Develop-
ment Core would deal with human
behavior, psychology, ethics and
religion. * point a director of faculty development
This new core would require 17 to 19
courses, compared to the present 14.
This leaves 15 major courses and eight
to six electives to the student. As
pointed out by Dr. Palmer, such an ex-
t e n s i v e core program greatly
discourages double majors, although
they are not directly prohibited under
the proposal. "Frankly, we don't want
double majors," commented Dr.
Garvey. "We think that the best train-
ing for a student when he enters the
working world is breadth, not depth.
When a student double majors, he
over-specializes too early and loses
breadth. A better system would be to
.work out a major and a minor."
According to Dr. Palmer, the propos-
ed core program "increases and
enriches the liberal arts, non-major
component of a student's curriculum
at the school. This reflects the institu-
tion's values. Pointing out these four
areas helps the school to clarify and
define what it thinks is important in the
ducat ion of a student at Mercyhurst.".,
Project 90 also includes a proposal
| for both a national standardized test
and an in-ho use test ho be ad-
would then be retested as outgoing
seniors. Scores on these tests would
not affect a i student's graduation
eligibility, but would be recordedjon
the transcript, r * 4 $
T As Dr. Palmer explains, these tests
would be based on a "learning out-
comes" or "value-added"! approach,
which serves to answer the question,
"How did Mercyhurst make a dif-
ference in the students' growth?" The
results of such tests would be applied
to further refining and improving the
college's educational methods, he ad-
ded. "We can then begin to say in more
concrete terms that we are a quality In-
stitution, because we will have a han-
dle on what it is weido in order to
create the results that we get."
' Under another proposal Included In
the report, the college's departmental
organization would be reduced from 19
departments to ten divisions. "The ad-
vantage is more efficiency in the opera-
tion of all the academic departments
and disciplines at the college," Dr.
Palmer said, noting that prior to 1980
the college was organized into eight
divisions. |i
$ In * addition,* a departmental self*
evaluation ^proposal calls for each
department to compare Its quality to
the quality liberal arts colleges In the
reqion and to other institutions in nor-
thwestern Pennsylvania. To be com-
pleted by May 15, 1986 in preparation
for the new Mercyhurst College Master
Plan (1986-1991), these evaluations
would also be used to raise the quality
of education within each department.
Under the outlined faculty develop-
changes
ment proposal, the college would ap- Policies Committee, while departmen-

lounge and a faculty evaluation pro- senate will propobably be reviewing

and ordering faculty professional
publications for the library. r>%
The final proposal, presented by the
Office of Freshmen Studies, is aimed
at greater retention of students at the
college by improving the freshman
year experience. Under the proposal,
students would be informed earlier and
more often by the Dean of poor
academic progress, while academic
achievement would receive greater
recognition. This proposal also sug-
gests the development of a freshmen
orientation course and outlines goals
for an improved academic advising
program. , -
Although the proposals will be
directed at incoming freshmen in the
fall of 1986, current freshmen will be
given the opportunity to graduate
under either the present system or the Dr. David Palmer

Garvey said. concfuded. v

"But the administration did not submit the proposals to us," you may
retort. Of course they didn't. It would hardly be practical for the ad-

students on this campus, only to have the majority ignored and thrown
away. Besides, the proposals have been presented to you, in condensed
form, on the front page of this publication. fi »
The Merciad's summary does not do the Project 90 report justice,
ihowever. We will be the first to admit that, in order to fully comprehend
the implications of the proposed changes, you must read over the report
yourselves. At our request, copies of the report have been placed on
reserve in the library under Dr. Garvey's name for your easy access. Any
comments and critcisms that you may have should be directed to your
| department directors and-or your student senators.

= Granted, you w i l i n o f t e forced to take tne additional core courses or
be subjected to the new testing programs; however, Mercyhurst's
reputation will stand behind the degree you will soon carry away from
this campus into the working world. Therefore, if you can do anything to
help this institution improve its academic standing, it is in your best in-
terest to do so as a potential graduate of the college.
Project 90 should be of particular interest to those of you who are
presently freshmen, since you will be given the opportunity to choose
which curricular program under which you wish to graduate.
We also ask you to remember that Mercyhurst is dedicated to your
growth and improvement as individuals. It seems only fair that you
should therefore be concerned with the academic growth of the institu-
tion to which you have each committed four years of your lives. After all,
|Webster defines "community" as "a sharing in common." *
We have already acknowledged that you are the heart of the Mer-

We think you will find that your college has prepared you well. With your
help, perhaps it can do an even better job with future classes.
