Educational Mission
Our primary aim at Beloit College is to provide a learning and living environment dedicated to the cultivation of liberally educated persons. We believe that a liberally educated person should achieve a significant depth of understanding in at least one academic discipline, but we also encourage our students to become more than narrow specialists. We regard a liberally educated person as one who is at home in the world of ideas and who values learning for its own sake. She or he is a person whose life is enriched by new interests, new sensitivities, and new modes of thought acquired through broad exposure to the arts, humanities, social sciences, natural sciences, and mathematics.
Moreover, we at Beloit believe that a liberally educated person should be prepared for intelligent and responsible participation in the contemporary world of action. We offer a broad variety of courses in which we ask students to think carefully and communicate clearly about fundamental questions concerning aesthetic, ethical, and social values. We emphasize international studies and interdisciplinary studies in our curriculum, and we encourage every student to include an applied or experiential dimension in his or her educational program. We want our students to become persons whose thinking unites reason and knowledge with feeling, sympathy, and commitment. Our aim is to help our students become citizens who make critical and productive connections between thought and action in all aspects of their lives.
