Guiding Philosophy of the Open Studies Faculty Council (OFC)
The Open Studies Faculty Council develops and administers policies and procedures designed to give students opportunities for learning they might not otherwise have. The Council encourages openness, flexibility and accessibility to meet the diverse needs of a mixed group of students including:
- recreational learners;
- students who are undecided about the discipline they wish to study;
- students seeking to meet degree program admission or readmission requirements;
- students with limited access due to their geographical location.
