  • 2005 Alumni Association Award Recipients
    2005 Alumni Association Award Recipients 'C' CLUB HALL OF FAME The Carleton College Alumni ‘C’ Club inducted four new members into its Hall of Fame during Reunion weekend Bill Hendren ’50, a four-year letter winner in cross-country and indoor and outdoor track and field, holds the rare distinction of serving as a team captain in all three sports. He graduated as the Carleton record-holder in the indoor half- mile and mile runs and the outdoor mile run. He won the Minnesota state cross- country meet as a freshman and helped set new Carleton Relays records in the sprint and two-mile relays, and the mile. Hendren served as president of the ‘C’ Club his senior year, helping athletics become more visible on the Carleton campus. He continues to be a leader in the running world, having founded and coached a youth track club in Ventura, California. Lydia Neilsen ’95 was Carleton’s first female NCAA individual swimming champion, capturing the 1995 100-yard breaststroke title and becoming the first Division III female to break 1:05.00 in the event. She earned three All-America citations in the 100-yard breaststroke and was an All-America honorable mention in the 200-yard breaststroke. She captured the MIAC title in the 100- and 200-yard breaststroke in 1995 and helped the 200-yard medley relay team to victory as well.

  • COLLEGE VISITS College Visits
    1 COLLEGE VISITS College Visits Why Visit Colleges? Visiting colleges and going on official campus tours can be a great way to get a sense of whether a particular school would be a good fit. If you’re not even sure where to begin or don’t know what you want in a college environment, campus visits are a great way to figure out what you really care about in a college. If you’re not sure whether you want a large research university or a small liberal arts college, or whether you want to be in an urban, suburban, or rural location, try visiting a handful of schools in the area. We are very fortunate in the Pacific Northwest because students don’t have to venture far to get a glimpse of college life at different types of post-secondary institutions. For example a student might visit the University of Washington, Western Washington University, and Whitman or perhaps Washington State University, Seattle University, and Lewis & Clark or maybe the University of Puget Sound, Reed, Willamette, and Montana State. Visiting a small mix of different schools will give you an idea of the size, location, campus environment, and surrounding community that resonates with you. Scheduling the Visit Start by exploring the college’s admissions website to see what their visit policies are. Some schools might require advanced notice, while others are happy to welcome anyone at any time. While it can be tempting to visit only the most prestigious schools on your list, the colleges you choose to visit should be in the realm of possibility for you.

Mellon Foundation January 1 - December 31, 2013 Grant: 41100697 * March 27, 2014 I. Introduction With the generous support of The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, Willamette University, Whitman College, Reed College, University of Puget Sound, and Lewis & Clark College are engaged in collaborative efforts through the establishment of a new regional alliance, the Northwest Five Consortium (NW5C). Working toward the regular sharing of expertise and resources, the mission of the NW5C is to enhance the student academic experience at our five liberal arts colleges through enrichment and development of faculty as teacher-scholars. In service of this mission, the Consortium provides the infrastructure to support collaborative efforts among its member institutions, and strives to create a vibrant and sustainable intellectual community of scholars in the Pacific Northwest. The NW5C has been very active in the second year of a four-year implementation grant following a 2011 planning grant. This report highlights information regarding NW5C events such as the annual conference and faculty workshops, report-outs of completed projects from the 2013 Fund for Collaborative Inquiry (FCI) grant cycle, an overview of the grant cycle for the 2014 FCI faculty projects, confirmation of the NW5C governance structure, the developing connections between the NW5C and other regional initiatives and national organizations, consortium participation statistics, and the further development of NW5C assessment protocols and review. The progress realized in our initial work together demonstrates the value in our increasing inter-connectivity. II. Project Components To date, over 140 consortium faculty and staff members have attended NW5C events.

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.

At the same time, we affirmed the 'AA-' long-term component and the 'A-1' short-term component of the rating on Reed's series 2008 bonds. The short-term rating on the series 2008 bonds reflects a standby bond purchase agreement provided by Wells Fargo Bank N.A. expiring in January 2023. The outlook on all long-term ratings is stable. Based on unaudited financial statements prepared by management as of June 30, 2020, Reed College's outstanding debt was about $99 million. Approximately 34% of the debt consists of the series 2008A variable-rate debt, a portion of which is synthetically fixed with an interest rate swap, and the remaining 66% consists of the series 2017A fixed-rate debt. All of the outstanding bonds are secured by a general obligation of the college.
