This sounds like a good idea, but I think the article might
be exaggerating how large a change this is. I graduated from Evergreen in 1984.
For each interdisciplinary program you had to write a self-evaluation and an
evaluation of the program and faculty, and the faculty member that you worked
with wrote an evaluation of you. Each of these evaluations was 2-4 pages.
Written evaluations and serious reflection have always been the norm at
Evergreen. I do, however, think this is a nice addition. It sounds like it asks
students to keep the big picture in mind. It also reminds me a bit of the plans
that my daughter had to do while she was at Bennington.
P.S. I looked at the Evergreen webpage, and it is great to see that Greeners still have the opportunity to work with Tom Rainey and Jeanne Hahn.
