We have space here only to summarize it. For most of its life, Williams understood itself as a “college on a hill.” Students withdrew here to contemplate higher things before heading back into the “real world.” The vocation of faculty was to pass on that knowledge, while staff supported the operation by managing the day-to-day. Over time, however, all of these lines blurred. The beginning may have come in the early 1960s, when students formed the Lehman Service Council to organize their projects in the local community. Two student-initiated programs, the Williamstown Youth Center and the Berkshire Food Project, still thrive. In the way that the student-formed Lyceum of Natural History, some of whose interactions with other cultures we now question, eventually led to the introduction of science into the curriculum, so too in time did the engagement seed germinated in the Lehman Council disperse widely through the college.

  • St. Olaf College
    National Institute for Learning Outcomes Assessment September 2020 Assessment in Motion: Steps Toward a More Integrated Model Susan Canon, Kelsey Thompson, and Mary Walczak Olaf College St. Foreword By Pat Hutchings As part of an ongoing effort to track and explore developments in student learning outcomes assessment, the National Institute for Learning Outcomes Assessment (NILOA) has published a number of institutional case studies which are housed on the website. We are now revisiting and updating some of those earlier examples in order to understand how campus assessment practices evolve over time—through lessons learned from local experience but also as a result of changes in institutional priorities, the launch of new initiatives, leadership transitions, and trends in the larger assessment movement. This report on St. Olaf College is an update of theoriginal 2012 case study by Natasha Jankowski. Founded in 1874 by Norwegian Lutheran immigrants, St. Olaf College is a nationally ranked residential liberal arts college of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA) located in Northfield, Minnesota. St. Olaf challenges students to excel in the liberal arts, examine faith and values, and explore meaningful vocation in an inclusive, globally engaged community nourished by Lutheran tradition. St. Olaf has roughly 3,000 students, offers 49 majors and 20 concentrations (minors), and has a robust study-abroad program, with more than two-thirds of students studying abroad before graduating. St. Olaf has a long history with assessment, having participated in many different assessment initiatives over the years including a Teagle-funded project with Carleton College and Macalester College focused on using assessment findings to improve specific learning outcomes, and eth Associated Colleges of the Midwest-Teagle Collegium on Student Learning exploring how students learn and acquire the knowledge and skills of a liberal education.
