This issue is about changing the general education curriculum - in big ways through significant reforms and, more frequently, incremental ways - to accomplish purposes better, connect with students better, and provide a more engaging and intellectually and emotionally compelling common collegiate experience. The chapter authors present the results of a recent national survey on changes in general education: four case studies of institutions that have undertaken change - how they did it, what the constraints were, and most important, what the results were: and discussions on achieving curricular coherence and the nature of change and how to bring it about. This is the 125th issue of the quarterly journal New Directions for Higher Education.
