Curriculum Teams (CT) are invited to submit proposals to either add or remove courses from the Lone Star College Core Curriculum. Every two years LSC submits revisions to its Core curriculum to the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board (THECB) for review and approval. CT Proposals are submitted to the General Education / Core Curriculum Committee, which is composed of representatives from all campuses and all disciplines, who review and make recommendations for the college community.
