This document reviews curriculum innovation at Hiram College. The curriculum project consists of six innovations: the freshman institute, freshman colloquium program, the twentieth centrury course, interdisciplinary courses, areas of concentration, and activity units. The intensive study of and practice in communication are the purposes of the freshman institute held prior to the beginning of the fall quarter. The freshman colloquium program is an attempt to continue the small group learning process begun with the institute. The twentieth century course is a required three-quarter course designed to enlarge the perspectives of students in the arts, sciences, and major concerns of our time. Each student is required to complete three interdisciplinary courses after his freshman year; students are also permitted to bypass traditional majors by designing a program more suitable to their own needs. Activity units aim at providing limited credit toward graduation for a great variety of activities not included in the curriculum. (Author/MJM)
