Educational Philosophy

A national college with a global reach, Lewis & Clark can offer opportunities you won’t find anywhere else. A typical day might find you helping your biology professor gather botanical samples for a habitat study, meeting with other students to plan the annual Gender Studies Symposium, or interning in a high-tech firm in Oregon’s Silicon Forest.
The first priority of the Lewis & Clark faculty is teaching. Small class sizes and close contact between professors and students create opportunities for discussion and collaboration both in and outside the classroom. Our faculty are active in research and scholarship and often involve students in their work.
