Letter to Editor

UBC Reports | Vol. 51 | No. 10 | Oct. 6, 2005

Dear Editor,

I very much enjoyed the story “UBC an Innovator in Cross-Discipline Learning” in your September 7 issue — however, one of the features of the Arts One program is that the team members (five for each 100-student cohort), do all the teaching in the program, which includes leading the four-person tutorials. Many students in the program have commented on the positive impact of having close weekly contact with the same people who give the lectures and lead the seminars.

The instructors in this program are all highly qualified teachers; the group is also extremely productive in a variety of research fields, including classics, literature, political science, science studies, and philosophy.

Sincerely,

Margery Fee
Director
Arts One Program
