Where Your Experience Leads.

Now, as never before, liberal arts and sciences are being heard and respected as a conduit for connection, equity, and inclusion. At the heart of our mission is a deep sense of community. The capacity to tackle complex issues requires all of us –with all our diverse experiences and unique perspectives– to come together. Teams take many forms, and building a strong one requires transparency, respect for everyone’s strengths, and the willingness to learn from one another. It requires the fearlessness to break out of predefined roles or disciplinary bounds, forge new partnerships, and work collaboratively to challenge outmoded ways of thinking.
