Community Enrichment Series
Fall 2009
All Saint Francis University community members are welcome to attend any of the Community Enrichment Series (CES) programs. Many professors incorporate CES programs into their courses in order to enrich the classroom experience and integrate learning in and out of the classroom.
First-year students are required to participate in the Community Enrichment Series, Core 103-104, on a Pass/Fail basis in partial fulfillment of their General Education requirement for graduation. In order to receive a passing grade at mid-term, students must attend a total of three programs. To receive a passing final grade, students must attend a total of six different programs by the end of the semester.
Because a goal of the General Education Program is to encourage you to broaden your horizons and expose you to new ideas, we hope you will sample several of the categories listed below and perhaps even make one of your choices a program you would normally be least likely to attend. If there are last-minute additions to the Community Enrichment Series list, they will be posted outside the General Education Office (Scotus 213), on the Campus Channel 5, and on the World Wide Web. CES events are also announced on the LCD screen in the Scotus/Padua lounge.
Events listed in red are offered multiple times over the course of the semester, but students may only earn one CES credit for attending these events. You may earn only one CES credit for Museum.
