  Ashland University has faced the challenge of

  meeting discipline standards for certifications and keeping majors up to date while

  on the other hand

  preserving the liberal arts and allowing students a measure of flexibility in their course selection. The concept which has evolved contains three primary elements: core requirements

  major/minor requirements and elective courses.\n\nAshland University intends to liberate the minds of students and to challenge each student to reach his or her full potential. Academic Affairs works to see that the teaching and program core of the institution allow and encourage that growth.
