This leaves very little room for course choices, and also forces students into making early decisions about their major. The alternative is staying at the University for a longer period. In 1982, along with the proposal for an increase in the General Education requirements came the request for a Business College at Northeastern. The Business and Management Divi- sion has continued to increase its enrollment over the years and now has approximately 20% of the undergrad- uates majoring in its discipline. With such a large enrollment, it was felt that the students would be served better if Business and Management had its own college with separate areas of concentration. The college will have three separate departments. The first will be Accounting, Finance and Busi- ness Law; the second department will be Management; and the third will be Marketing. With separate departments, students will be allowed to take more courses in a specific area, as opposed to the current system of a few from each area. Additionally students can minor or choose a second major in another area of business. Dr. Olga Engelhardt arrived at Northeastern in 1982 with the assignment of creating a College of Business and Management. Within the year she received a recommendation from the Board of Governors that the division be granted collegiate status. All that remained at the end of the year was approval from the Illinois Board of Higher Education to approve the new degrees that will be offered by the col- lege. During 1982 the Division already es- tablished four new 300 level management courses to give students greater diversity in the management disciplines. While the new college was still in the development stage the University acted unsuccessfully to prevent Gover- nors State University (GSU) from (Continued on p. 10)

The G.E.P. are the core requirements for students that are needed to graduate. The new G.E.P. require- ments for all incoming freshmen total 42 hours instead of the previous 30 hours. The rationale for the change, said Dr. David Unumb, Chairman of the General Education Program Committee, was the discovery nationwide that certain basic skills were not being de- veloped (in college students). The General Education Program ' s approach was thus designed with pro- viding Northeastern ' s students with broad based knowledge, sensitivities, and skills which the G.E.P. committee determines best prepares them for in- volvement in their own lives, society, and an uncertain future. The required credit hours for the General Education Program are as follows: Humanities: 9 Credit Hours Behavior Social Sciences: 12 Credit Hours Fine Arts: 6 Hours ' Natural Sciences: 12 Credit Hours ( ' Includes one lab course. One Math may be applied) Interdisciplinary or Professional Studies: 3 Credit Hours While many support the new program, some faculty don ' t consider the program to be in the best interests of the University. Some state that in- structors will be forced to teach only 100 and 200 level courses because of increased demand caused by the program. They also fear that they will be forced to teach skills that students should have learned in high schools. Along with the proposal for an in- crease in the General Education courses is a requirement that all under- graduates complete a minor with their major, or a second major, or a set of cognate courses required by a major, or a professional sequence. This option would require at least an additional 15 hours.
