This statement should be on the syllabi for all UGE courses:

University General Education
The intent of the UGE program is to expand students' breadth of education at K-State.  This
course carries the designation of University General Education (UGE).  Students' UGE
experiences should inspire them to appreciate differing viewpoints, consider openly new and
divergent thinking, weigh ideas with careful skepticism, challenge conventional wisdom, and
explore for more accurate and more useful knowledge.  UGE courses are to incorporate an active
learning environment, an experiential context for whatever is studied, and an opportunity for
students to connect ideas.
