The present study is a result of the discussions in the regular meetings at a book club created to study and discuss curricular reforms in general education at Harvard University in the U.S. The club aimed to reveal suggestions and implications for the general education development and practice for the field through Harvard’s experience. The assigned readings were: 1. The Red Book - General Education in a Free Society (1945), 2. The White Book - Getting at the Core: Curricular Reform at Harvard (1978), 3. Harvard College Curricular Review - Report of the Committee on General Education (2005), and 4. Report of the Task Force on General Education (2007). The first and second reading described the curricular reforms at Harvard in the 20th century, while third and fourth recorded the reforms at Harvard in the 21st century. Through in-depth discussions about those Harvard’s experience, suggestions and implications for the field were elaborated as follows: 1. the president is important for the success of the curriculum reform; 2. the goals of the general education curriculum should be specific and advanced with time; 3. distribution requirements contrasts with core curriculum; and 4. a separate faculty for general education and administration.
