Elizabethtown College is a community of learners committed to independent thought and personal integrity as the foundations of a life of learning. Our mission is to nurture sound intellectual judgment, keen moral sensitivity, and an appreciation for beauty in the world. High standards of leadership and scholarship are the foundations of our distinctive blend of the liberal arts and professional studies. In keeping with the heritage of the Church of the Brethren, a historic peace church like the Quakers and Mennonites, the College affirms the values of peace, non-violence, human dignity, and social justice and seeks to make those values manifest in the global community. "Educate for Service" expresses our belief that the pursuit of knowledge is most noble when used to benefit others. Elizabethtown is a place of intellectual adventure where boundaries are erased and the excitement of discovering new ideas occupies center stage. Learning occurs in and outside the classroom. Faculty are actively engaged in scholarly activity because the College values intellectual curiosity, and this important work informs and enhances teaching. Members of the College community come from all walks of life and backgrounds, and this mix enriches the culture of the campus. Respected for their diverse and unique contributions, community members also possess a sense of common purpose. Elizabethtown College, in its pursuit of excellence and distinction, embodies three characteristics: Expressions of Our Heritage. Elizabethtown fosters and creates programs that are a unique expression of our Brethren heritage, both curricular and co-curricular. Service to others is held as one of the highest ideals of the community and is integrated into campus life. The College also supports the belief that "the world of work and world of the spirit" inform and strengthen each other. The community encourages a genuine dialogue between faith and learning and affirms the pursuit of religious expression, spiritual values, and the search for universal

    Elizabethtown College Class of 2012 CLASS OF 2012 The One-Year-Out Report ELIZABETHTOWN COLLEGE EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Page 1 Elizabethtown College Class of 2012 Methodology This report includes information on the 376 undergraduate students from the traditional residential program who earned a degree at one of the 2012 conferrals: January, May, and August. Information for this survey was collected from multiple sources. Students provided preliminary information on a survey distributed at commencement rehearsal. They were additionally surveyed electronically approximately one year post-graduation. Additional information was provided by academic departments, the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES), and LinkedIn. Through this process, responses were collected from 87% of the 2012 graduates. Outlook for 2012 Graduates According to the National Association of Colleges and Employers (NACE), the job outlook for 2012 college graduates was cautiously optimistic. Employers anticipated hiring 9-10% more college graduates from the class of 2012 than from the prior class of graduates. Still, the 2012 job market was highly competitive, with roughly 33 applications for every one job opening (CNNMoney ). A survey by Millennial Branding & Experience Inc. (2012, May 14) indicates that employers seek to hire individuals who have good communication skills, a positive attitude, the ability to adapt to changes, skills for effective teamwork, and who are goal oriented. Nationally, the average salary offer to 2012 college grads was expected to be $51,000 (NACE Fall 2011 Salary Survey). Compared with their peers without a college degree, college graduates can expect to accrue roughly one million dollars more in lifetime earnings. As this report shows, the 2012 graduates of Elizabethtown College fared well in the competitive marketplace they faced following graduation.

  • 2019 BEA Convention
    Welcome As Program Chair, it is with great pleasure that I welcome you to the 2019 BEA Convention. Convention As educators, we draw findings from diverse streams of research to provide students with an understanding of the theoretical approaches to the analysis of media texts and, in turn, to Program Chair’s inform their own production practice. In other words, we strive to teach students not just which production techniques work, but why they work. Be that as it may, prominent industry producers continue to be of the view that media production is self-taught and the role of educators is one Welcome of giving students the confidence and inspiration to succeed. Therefore, if we as educators are to serve as mere beacons of inspiration, what roles do our theoretical teachings serve in the professional practice of electronic media? Does the professional practice of media rely on instinct or on the acquisition of specialized skills and knowledge? The BEA2019 Convention Spotlight, Education and Industry: Mediating the Nexus, explores the issues posed by these questions. To that end, we have an exciting line up of presentations and workshops that aim to increase the dialogue between scholars and practitioners in order to aid the former to build new and expand existing industry relationships; to develop curricula in such a way that the insights gained from theory feed into practice, and vice versa; and to identify research gaps and foster collaborative research projects with industry partners. On the academic side, the Research Symposium examines the issue of what it means to be media literate.

  • Elizabethtown College
    ! Elizabethtown College Founded in 1899, in Central Pennsylvania, Elizabethtown College has 1,800 undergraduates as well as small graduate programs in Occupational Therapy, Peace Education, Special Education and Public Policy. Located in a region with several liberal arts colleges as well as one of the largest state universities in the US (Penn State-University Park), Elizabethtown has signature programs in Communications, Education, Engineering, Music Therapy and Occupational Therapy. Overall, the college offers more than 50 majors and over 80 minors. While the college is cross shopped against other liberal arts colleges, it also considered against other Pennsylvania schools that offer these degree programs. Approximately two thirds of the students come from Pennsylvania, although the college also draws well from neighboring states: New Jersey, New York and Maryland. Elizabethtown was founded as one of the Colleges of the Brethren along with Bridgewater College (VA) Juniata College (PA), McPherson College (KS), Manchester University (IN) and the University of La Verne (CA). But it markets itself as a secular institution. While Elizabethtown is considered a Regional University—the majority of degrees are not in the traditional liberal arts subjects—it has the look and feel of a small college. There is really no similar school within Pennsylvania in terms of academic mix, though Misericordia University, located near Scranton, comes quite close. Elizabethtown is not an exceptionally selective college. The school accepted just over 70 percent of the students who applied to join the Class of 2014. About a quarter of the accepted applicants decided to come. Admissions are rolling. A decision can be made within two weeks after all materials are in.
