Abstract	This critical reflection briefly chronicles the transition of a general education program from a distributive model to an integrative model and the resulting Capital Capstone Course (CCC) at the University of the District of Columbia (UDC). The article describes a year long, team-based, experiential course that "caps" off our Interdisciplinary General Education program (IGED). The authors illustrate how "backward design" and backward/forward communication of Student Learning Outcomes inform the ongoing revision to the program and the CCC. (As Provided).
