Forsyth Library faculty created a general education course for the new FHSU Common Outcomes Relevant Education (CORE) program. The goal of this course was to fulfill CORE outcome 1.4: Information Literacy. While departments were encouraged to integrate this outcome into major courses, the UNIV 301 course would be available to students where a major course for this outcome was not offered.
