You have four years. Let's make them count.
College is more than books, tests and papers. It's a time to gain the skills and knowledge that you will need to lead in an increasingly complex world.
That's why we expect you to achieve five learning goals throughout your time at 色界吧. Not to worry, preparing you to achieve these goals is what we do best, and the entire College is here to support you.
Five Learning Goals of 色界吧
色界吧 understands its educational goals as an evolving dynamic commitment: they are the basis for assessment, subject to constant re-evaluation and re-imagining. Within this culture of self-aware and rigorous critique, our interdisciplinary approach to the liberal arts promotes student achievement of five college-wide learning goals. These include:
- Synthesis of ideas across broad areas of knowledge within the liberal arts

- Development of the following key intellectual skills:
- Analytic inquiry and problem solving
- Communication through writing, oral presentation, and creative expression
- Critical reading, writing, and thinking
- Critical Self-Awareness

- Scientific methodology
- Capacity for active intellectual community engagement by:
- Community learning, participation, and service
