Theapproach is to find a diverse range of universities that are willing to serve as design partners anddevelop model curricula that both incorporate the BOK and meet the needs of all universitieswhether they are public or private, large or small, research-focused or teaching-focused. To date,18 universities ranging from Bucknell and Norwich to Penn State and the University of Nebraskahave volunteered to participate. The committee formed in August 2003 and is
