Colby College is accredited by the New England Association of Schools and Colleges. Membership in the association indicates that the institution has been carefully evaluated and found to meet standards agreed up on by qualified educators. Colby College is a private, coeducational liberal arts college that admits students and makes personnel decisions on the basis of the individual's qualifications to contribute to Colby's educational objectives and institutional needs. The principle of not discriminating on the basis of race, color, sex, sexual orientation, religion, age, parental or marital status, national or ethnic origin, political beliefs, or disability unrelated to job or course of study requirements is consistent with the mission of a liberal arts college and the law. Colby is an affirmative action/equal opportunity employer and op erates in accordance with federal and state laws regarding nondiscrimination. The College reserves the right in its sole judgment to make changes of any nature in its program, calendar, academic schedule, fe es, deposits, or any other matters in this catalogue. Orientation 19 Financial Aid 24 General Regulat!ol}.s 25 . t;::?';.;; 5 Colby Chartered by the General Court of Massachusetts in 1813, seven years before Maine became a state, Colby is the 12th ,oldest independent liberal arts college in the nation. In 1871 it became the first previously all,male college in New England to admit women. Befo re World War II, trustees voted to move the College from its crowded original site in downtown Waterville to the handsome Mayflower Hill campus of more than 700 acres, where 46 buildings have been constructed since 1937. Today, Colby's 1,700 students-evenly divided between men and women-come from virtually every state and more than 43 foreign countries. Alumni, numbering more than 20,000, are represented in all 50 states and in some 65 fo reign countries. Students may choose from nearly 500 courses in 40 major fields and have wide flexibility in designing independent study programs, electing special majors, and participating in internshipsand exchange programs. More than half of all Colby students will study abroad at some time during their undergraduate experience. Colby is committed to the belief that the best preparation for life, and especially fo r the professions that require sp ecialized study, is a broad acquaintance with human knowledge. A hallmark of the Colby experience is the close relationship between students and faculty, which serves to nurture the excitement that accompanies the discovery of ideas and values. The Colby Plan (see p. 29) is a series of 10 educational precepts that reflect the principal elements of a liberal education and serve as a guide fo r making reflective course choices, fo r measuring educational growth, and fo r planning education beyond college. Students are urged to pursue these objectives not only in their course work but also through educational and cultural events, campus organizations and activities, and service to others both on campus and in the broader community. To these ends, the Colby academic and residential program is designed to free each student to find and fulfill her or his unique potential. It is hop ed that students will become critical and imaginative thinkers who are: welcoming of diversity and compassionate toward others; capable of distinguishing fact from op inion; intellectually curious and aesthetically aware; adep t at synthesis as well as analysis; broadly educated with depth in some areas; proficient in writing and sp eaking; familiar with one or more scientific disciplines; knowledgeable about America and other cultures; able to create and enjoy opportunities for lifelong learning; willing to assume leadership roles as students and citizens; prep ared to respond fl exibly to the changing demands of the world of work; useful to society and happy with themselves. Colby stands fo r diversity, without which we become parochial; for respect for various lifestyles and beliefs,· without which we become mean,spirited; and for the protection of every individual against discrimination. In the classroom and outside, there is freedom to study, to think, to sp eak, and to learn in an environment that insists upon the free and op en exchange of ideas and views.

Colby chapter of Phi Beta Kappa founded in 1895. 7 Colby Values and the Commons Plan Historically, Colby has valued understanding of and concern for others, diversity of thought and culture, open access to campus groups and organizations, and personal and academic honesty. In order to embrace and support these values, members of the College community bear a special responsibility, in all of their words and actions, to honor and protect the rights and feelings of others. The Commons Plan was designed to reinforce and amplify these values. Integral to the plan was the decision to withdraw recognition from Colby's several fraternities. The trustees determined that these groups had become disconsonant with Colby's values because they tended to narrow the opportunities and experiences of students rather than expand them, because they were discriminatory against women and were exclusionary by nature, and because fraternity members often engaged in disruptive and undesirable activities such as hazing and pressuring students to join. The Commons Plan offersa number of advantages to students. There are four distinct small communities or "commons," each with its own dining facilities and governing units. Housing of all kinds throughout the campus is available on an equal basis to all students, and students play a greater role in the control and governance of the public spaces within the Commons, including the dining halls. Out,of,class faculty,student interaction is enhanced, and opportunities for the development and expression of individual student leadership come frominvolvement with the governing bodies and from organizing intellectual and social activities within the Commons. Students may reside within the same residence

  • Chaos and Creativity: Liberal Education for the 21St Century David Oxtoby, Pomona College Colby College Bicentennial, April 8, 2013
    Chaos and Creativity: Liberal Education for the 21st Century David Oxtoby, Pomona College Colby College Bicentennial, April 8, 2013 I am a chemist as well as a college president, and in thinking about the goals of higher education I often return to two general methods that intertwine through the study of chemistry: analysis and synthesis. In analysis, chemists may take a complex mixture and break it down into separate substances through chromatography, or take a single substance and use spectroscopy to find its atomic structure. In synthesis, chemists work in the opposite direction, taking a series of simple materials (ideally, off the shelf) and combine them to make a more complex compound with particular chemical properties. Chemists go back and forth between these two approaches in their everyday work. For example, a chemist might take a natural product with certain desirable medicinal properties, purify it, and analyze it to determine its structure; then she might develop a synthesis to prepare the product from commonly available starting materials. I begin an essay on the future of liberal education with the concepts of analysis and synthesis because I believe the processes inherent in each—breaking down and putting together— characterize many of the activities central to our college curricula. Let me explain. A great deal of learning involves analysis, taking something complex and breaking it into simpler pieces that we already understand, or that we can focus on sequentially. In an English class we may do a close reading of a poem, looking at it line by line to see the use of language, meter, or metaphor.
