Since the spring of 2005, URI faculty committees have developed and implemented assessment procedures for the the University's general education program. The Subcommittee on Assessment of General Education (SAGE) is the organizational mechanism for furthering this assessment process, and reports to the University College and General Education Committee of the Faculty Senate. Currently, plans are being developed to revitalize and renew the general education program. A time line for finalization and implementation is being established.
LOOC was established in 2007 as a joint committee with representation from many important constituencies within the University, and is committed to promoting, supporting, and ensuring effective assessment as an integral part of the student learning experience at URI
