University of Science and Arts of Oklahoma

Chickasha, OK

The University of Sciences and Arts of Oklahoma says, "At USAO . . . the general education core is the central component of the liberal arts experience. . . . USAO eschews the menu approach to general education, in which students choose from many courses that have been pieced together into broad categories. Instead, all USAO students take the same sequence of courses, building a common experience that binds together current students, faculty and alumni. This common set of courses is structured to lead students through a logical sequence of learning." [Source]
