BOX 37 GREENCASTLE, IN 46135-0037 (765) 658-4800 Section I: The University A DePauw Education Nationally recognized for a distinctive liberal arts approach that links intellectual rigor with life's work, DePauw University prepares graduates who creatively address the challenges of the world. DePauw is a coeducational, residential liberal arts institution. The University offers a Bachelor of Arts degree with majors in the arts, humanities, sciences and social sciences. In addition, there are three degree options within the School of Music. Beginning in 2007-08, DePauw will offer a Masters degree in teaching (MAT). The study of the liberal arts provides a foundation for a lifetime of learning, intellectual challenge and personal growth. At DePauw, it allows students to explore widely and come to appreciate how different ways of knowing may interact, yet it also encourages sustained and focused inquiry. Through the program of general education, students not only learn about, but also participate in, a variety of artistic, humanistic and scientific endeavors. Majors encourage students to understand what it means to master a subject or area of knowledge. A DePauw education means more than gathering knowledge. It emphasizes critical thinking, problem-solving, interpretation, learning through experience and learning through reflection. Along with developing ideas, it emphasizes expressing them articulately and distinctively in speaking and writing. The liberal arts curriculum is dynamic and incorporates emerging fields as well as interdisciplinary approaches to ideas, culture and human experience. A DePauw education asserts that developing a global perspective and an appreciation and tolerance for a more diverse society are vital for living in an increasingly interdependent world. Since its founding by frontier Methodists, DePauw has sought to foster moral reflection and humane values among its students. Its strong tradition of service to humanity – whether in the Greencastle community or around the world – manifests its belief that moral engagement and civic responsibility should guide our actions and commitments. DePauw is a place where world leaders discuss the issues of the day. Speakers on campus have included former Soviet Union leader Mikhail Gorbachev; retired chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff General Colin L. Powell; former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher; former First Lady Barbara Bush; former West German Chancellor and Nobel Prize winner (the late) Willy Brandt; former U.S. Senator Bill Bradley; former Canadian Prime Minister Brian Mulroney; civil rights leaders Jesse Jackson and Julian Bond; Nobel Prize winners, including Holocaust writer Elie Weisel, physicist Leon Lederman and DePauw alumnus Dr. Ferid Murad; journalists Bernard Shaw and George Will; novelists, including Nobel and Pulitzer Prize winner Toni Morrison, Roger Wilkins and alumna Barbara Kingsolver; retired Apollo 13 astronaut James A. Lovell Jr.; and important voices in the marketplace of ideas, such as former U.S. Secretary of Education and drug czar William Bennett, magazine publisher and presidential candidate Malcolm S. Forbes Jr., educator and social critic Jonathan Kozol, and Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and author James B. Stewart, an alumnus. It is a place for theater and debate, self-expression and self-understanding, art exhibits and musical recitals, student publications and media productions. As a residential college, DePauw fosters learning in how to build and govern a community. Students occupy many positions of responsibility in living units and campus organizations, and DePauw is deeply committed to realizing the ideals of civic responsibility in itself as a community. Among these ideals are the inclusion of diversity and respect for difference so that all can be members of the community without all being alike. DePauw is a place for activity. Its variety of intercollegiate and intramural sports and recreation programs invites every student's participation and promotes an active, healthy life. Finally, DePauw is a place where the intellect is challenged by experience. Through internships, off-campus study and research projects, DePauw students enrich the classroom with practice and application. Much of DePauw's reputation for excellence can be attributed to the uncommon success of its alumni. DePauw graduates have distinguished themselves in the arts, business, education, government, journalism, law, medicine, music, science and many other fields. DePauw University Mission Statement DePauw University, a residential liberal arts college, provides a diverse learning and living community which is distinctive in its rigorous intellectual engagement and international and experiential learning opportunities. DePauw teaches its students values and habits of mind which serve them throughout their lives as each of them makes a positive difference as an active citizen of the world. (adopted by the Board of Trustees in January, 2006) The Purpose and Aims of DePauw (An institutional statement approved by the faculty.) DePauw University stands today as a prime example of the independent liberal arts college which has served its state and nation in the best traditions of American educational institutions. It views the normal four-year period of college as a foundation for a lifetime of continued learning and growth. Therefore, while it stresses particular patterns of prevocational and pre-professional learning, it does so in the context of a commitment to an examination of values, a pursuit of heightened aptitude in critical thinking and the establishment of a sufficiently broad base of general learning to constitute a foundation for living with meaning as well as making a living. DePauw reaffirms its commitment to academic excellence, growth in personal and social awareness and preparation for leadership. The general intellectual aims of the University are to seek truth and educate minds. To these ends the members of the University strive: to foster the love of learning and the increase of knowledge and to recognize and support intellectual and creative excellence; to enlarge capacities for clear, thorough and independent thought; to understand and appreciate cultural and scientific achievements, past and present; to encourage serious reflection on the moral and ethical aspects of experience;

  • University Core Curriculum (UCC)
    Ball State University Core Curriculum st for the 21 Century A. Preamble: Core Goals for Undergraduate Education Graduates of Ball State University are individuals who realize their intellectual potential, who seek to add breadth and depth to their perspectives, and who maintain their physical well-being. Graduates of the university command extensive knowledge and a mature repertoire of cognitive, practical, and technological skills. They exhibit integrity and responsible action in their social, professional, and civic lives. They respect the histories, cultures, and needs of others. They inform their decisions through critical, creative, and scientific reasoning, and they discern the consequences of their decisions and actions at the local, national, and global levels. They acknowledge responsibility for environmental well- being and for the civic engagement that a diverse democracy requires. Employing scientific, critical, and creative thinking, Ball State graduates transform Experience into information (isolate discrete, recognizable and usable facts), Information into knowledge (analyze facts within an intellectual framework, discover meaning in experience), Knowledge into judgment (reflect on knowledge gained to make choices and direct what they think, say and do), Judgment into action (take individual responsibility and contribute to the well- being of their communities). B. Goals and Objectives To achieve this vision and accomplish these transformations, student learning experiences are guided by a recursive, intellectual development process inherent in the following goals: 1. To transform experience into information, Ball State graduates are intentional learners who accurately observe and measure elements of the natural and social worlds, are alert to the importance of context, explore diverse ways of knowing, develop strategies for reflecting on experience.

    T​HE ​ C​APTAINS’​ W​ELCOME To the New Griffins of Stanford Hall, Gentlemen, welcome home! We are not only excited to welcome you to your new home for the next four years of your life but also ecstatic to congratulate you for being selected to be a part of the greatest Residence Hall at Notre Dame: Stanford Hall. While some of the other dorms on campus may say that the members of their halls were randomly selected, we know very well that only the best of the best, the crème de la crème if you will, are selected to join the noble ranks of Stanford Hall. We Griffins are known for our supreme athletic ability, rugged good looks, charming personalities, astute knowledge in the classroom, and of course for our exemplary gentlemanly behavior. Sound a bit like yourself? Yeah, we knew it. The Griffin tradition has been in place for 60 years, ever since our dorm took the campus by storm and made the other inferior dorms tremble at Stanford’s mighty construction of cinderblock and mortar. Over the years, our dorm has accumulated countless accolades and honors including winning the Interhall Cup, which is awarded for our unparalleled athletic dominance (It’s sort of like the House Cup from Harry Potter but much cooler, and it’s no coincidence the Griffins resemble Gryffindor). As recently as 2016-17, the Griffins of Stanford Hall claimed the Hall of the Year. As all returning griffins know, we are coming off a fantastic year and must continue the momentum in hopes of becoming Hall of the Year once again! We need the Stanford Class of 2024’s help to continue this commitment to excellence.
