These students at the satellite campus participate in the seminar via ITV or videoconference using Skype or Adobe Connect. The curriculum of the seminar is designed toincrease familiarity with university resources, provide useful information about a wide array ofpersonal and career issues, and foster relationships with students and faculty across disciplines.Instructional methods for the seminar vary from week to week as the MAX faculty mentors taketurns serving as the lead instructor.

Yet, while faculty andadministrators argue that the new curriculum has immense value for advancing undergraduateeducation, they simultaneously worry that such collaborations will circumspect thetransdisciplinary goals of their curriculum. As one academic stakeholder reflected, the degreeprogram has the potential to transform how the university thinks about individual learning plansfor undergraduates that exist outside of traditional disciplinary frameworks, but it also “shouldn’tbecome a pipeline for business and industry.”Alongside this tension—and partly in response to it—the authors of this paper were hired toconduct an external
