Making a Difference II, a continuation of a workshop held in 2007, was held May 22, 2008, with the support of Dr. Phil Kraemer, Associate Provost for Undergraduate Education at the Boone Center. This one-day workshop hosted by the UK Advising Network was an opportunity for 115+ University Student Affairs staff, Admissions & Registrar staff, Advising Network members, and associate deans to gather and discuss ways to improve student success and satisfaction and rates of retention and graduation. The Design Principles of a Revised General Education Curriculum [PDF], approved by the UK University Senate in Spring 2008, were presented and served as a basis for discussion of how the University community can work together to contribute to the success of the principles in complementary co-curricular ways.
