Think critically, learn actively, interact in diverse environments, and communicate with clarity. Those are Cascadia’s four learning outcomes driven by our mission to be a collaborative, learner- centered college. Every class is designed to embrace those learning outcomes and exposes students to small group work where projects, presentations, and Board Board of Trustees teaching others are key components.
