In December 1998, the State University of New York Board of Trustees passed Resolution 98-241, which established the SUNY General Education Requirement (SUNY GER). The SUNY GER policy was amended in January 2010 and remains applicable to students who began their undergraduate degree studies at a SUNY campus—with no interruption of study beyond two academic years—prior to implementation of the SUNY General Education Framework (SUNY GE).
