2005 Catalog Mission Statement i Mission Statement When Grinnell College framed its charter in the Iowa Territory of the Untied States in 1846, it set forth a mission to educate its students “for the different professions and for the honorable discharge of the duties of life.” The College pursues that mission by educating young men and women in the liberal arts through free inquiry and the open exchange of ideas. As a teaching and learning community, the College holds that knowledge is a good to be pursued both for its own sake and for the intellectual, moral, and physical well-being of individuals and of society at large. The College exists to provide a lively academic community of students and teachers of high schol- arly qualifications from diverse social and cultural circumstances. The College aims to graduate women and men who can think clearly, who can speak and write persuasively and even eloquently, who can evaluate critically both their own and others’ ideas, who can acquire new knowledge, and who are prepared in life and work to use their knowledge and their abilities to serve the common good. ii Core Values Core Values of Grinnell College Excellence in Education for Students in the Liberal Arts ■ varied forms of learning, in and out of the classroom and beyond college ■ creative and critical thinking stimulated by the free, open exchange of ideas ■ education that reflects on its own process ■ excellent teaching as the highest priority of the faculty ■ active scholarship in traditional and interdisciplinary fields ■ need-blind admission of students with strong academic potential A Diverse Community ■ a wide diversity of people and perspectives ■ a residential campus in a setting that promotes close interactions ■ personal, egalitarian, and respectful interactions among all members of the community ■ meeting full demonstrated financial-aid need of admitted and continuing students ■ support for professional well-being of all whose work contributes to the College Social Responsibility ■ our strong tradition of social responsibility and action ■ our strong tradition of self-governance and personal responsibility ■ learning from and communicating with the world beyond the campus ■ life-long connections that support friendship, work, and learning ■ continuing to build institutional strength for educating tomorrow’s students Profile iii Grinnell College Profile Founded: 1846 Location: Grinnell, Iowa (population 9,100); on or near Interstate 80, U.S. Highways 6 and 63, State Highway 146; one hour from airports at Des Moines and Cedar Rapids Type: Private, coed, residential, liberal arts Degree Conferred: Bachelor of Arts Enrollment: About 1,450 (total enrollment including those currently studying off campus) from 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and about 50 countries Six-Year Graduation Rate: 84.0 percent Student:Faculty Ratio: 10:1 Academic Year: Late August through mid-May (two semesters) Library: 504,500 volumes; currently receiving 4,700 serials; select depository for federal documents Accreditation and Affiliations: Accredited by the Higher Learning Commission of the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools, 30 North LaSalle Street, Suite 2400, Chicago, IL 60602-2504, telephone 321-263-0456.

  • Life and Career Preparation Through a Liberal Arts Education Darcie
    Life and Career Preparation through a Liberal Arts Education Darcie Scales Word Count: 1169 History & Geography, Bachelor of Arts The liberal arts experience was the college environment I craved. The small classrooms, distinct learning environments, and focus on collaboration drew me like no other universities. Most importantly, public liberal arts schools, like Georgia College, make it affordable and accessible to achieve such an education. Otherwise, the private universities that dominate the liberal arts can limit the types of people who attend and require students to take on even greater debt. Of course, the most important aspect of any university is the experience within the classroom. Course layouts varied from professor to professor, making each class a new experience. Often, courses were a mixture of lecture, discussion, collaboration, and student-led topics. This lent a more well-rounded experience that is more representative of real collaborations and workplaces. Without my class experiences, I would not feel as prepared to enter graduate school or the workforce. Interdisciplinary classes allowed me to listen to well- crafted, and engaging lectures from my talented professors, and they permitted the opportunity for discussion. Several of my history professors were completely engaging, and they made history and its importance come alive for me. Additionally, many of my professors regularly guided students into discussion during lectures, but they also set aside days just for seminars that allotted time for lively discussions pertaining to the materials. In several of my history classes, we debated how primary sources affected our understanding of events and people, in addition to monographs that enlightened the subjects with others’ research.

Both were pursuing double the disciplines majors across academic divisions they study (chemistry/English and biology/sociology). Both regularly noticed—and were disturbed by—negative and inaccurate impressions of their major fields held by students studying other disciplines. They became interested in C. P. Snow’s concept of “two cultures” (1988, 3), which suggests that “the intellectual life of the whole of western society is increasingly being split” into sciences and humanities. Therefore, we designed a study that would measure students’ perceptions of the various DONALD E. ELMORE is assistant professor of chemistry at Wellesley College, JULIA C.

As we continue to seek ways to raise Central’s profile in an intensely competitive marketplace, it’s critical that our teams employ a graphic identity that is not only bright and visually appealing but also as unique and distinctive to Central College as the powerful championships legacy our student-athletes have created over the past 125 years. Maintaining brand discipline, while sometimes unpopular, is crucial. By adhering to the standards in this manual, you are helping the college maintain a consistent, recognizable look that will enhance the institutional brand, reduce the likelihood for confusion and help Central and Central athletics stand out from the crowd. Thank you. Mark Putnam, president Central College Athletics - Official Brand Identity - Usage and Style Guide 3 General Guidelines The athletics graphic identity may only be used with apparel/gear/signage/materials associated with the Central College athletics department. It may not be used by any other academic or administrative campus office or organization.

  • 1 2. Classical Reception Pedagogy in Liberal Arts Education
    CUCD Bulletin 46 2017 ***Teaching the Classical Reception Revolution*** 2. Classical Reception Pedagogy in Liberal Arts Education Emma Cole University of Bristol iberal Arts degrees, sometimes called Bachelor of Arts and Sciences degrees, represent one of the fastest growing programmes in British universities. 1 The courses aim to L combine a breadth and depth of study, allowing students to gain a broad, interdisciplinary education within the arts and humanities, and sometimes also the social sciences, with a depth of expertise focused around a specific major, or pathway. In addition, they encourage students to build links between their degree and wider culture and society, incorporating internships, language modules, and study abroad trips as the norm rather than the exception and often as credit-bearing, compulsory elements. Interestingly, classicists have played a remarkably prominent role in the development of these courses.2 I myself have taught on two such programmes, and in both instances have used the Liberal Arts remit as a framework for classical reception topics. Here I discuss the pedagogical strategies I have employed in Liberal Arts modules, providing a template for other academics wishing to find homes for classical reception topics within non-classics degree structures. In addition, I demonstrate the potential that the interdisciplinary Liberal Arts curricula hold for early-career scholars wanting to engage in research-led teaching. Such teaching provides crucial formative training for junior scholars seeking to progress their academic careers, and I argue that the experience has a flow-on effect in preparing scholars for teaching in a more traditional, single-honours environment. The rhetoric surrounding British Liberal Arts degrees revolves around the importation of a US- style Liberal Arts college model.
