What is GEFS?

Started in 2005, the General Education Film Series provides opportunities to increase students’ cultural, artistic, and information literacy by presenting films that contain themes not commonly found in Hollywood cinema. GEFS also fosters interdisciplinary understanding and critical thinking through the medium of independent and foreign cinema.

Managed by Wade Edwards (French) and David Shoenthal (Mathematics), GEFS receives financial support from the General Education program, the LCVA, and the Office of Diversity and Inclusion.
