- Education Plan. The Curriculum Committee continued the discussion of how best to organize, implement and evaluate the education initiatives outlined in the Decade Plan. The plan is large and complex, but can be divided into portions, each with a "team" to be held together under the direction of the Curriculum Committee. These teams would involve faculty and studentsd from the Principles of Medicine and Clinical Medicine committees as well as from the faculty and student body at large. The areas requiring the most "work" are highlighted in blue.
