We're starting a really exciting curriculum this year. So students will be on their toes constantly.

If students get a well-rounded foundation based on the (state curriculum), we are confident that they will do well. We are confident, after looking at our results from last year, that we are headed in the right direction when it comes to the TAKS.

These students could compete with first-year law students. It's a broad kind of curriculum and different pieces will incite different people.

We want everything to be hands-on. The curriculum should be alive for the students, instead of flat ... They are challenged, but they're able to express themselves and think outside of the box and really understand topics in depth.

By focusing on more rigorous curriculum, we'll get students with better test scores.

We will continue our assessment of curriculum design and learning outcomes of what students should learn. This is a perfect time for these changes in the academic affairs area with all the improvements to our facilities and the hiring of excellent new faculty.
