FoundationsThe faculty expects that students will attain a high level of engagement early in their studies and will develop as creative and critical thinkers, writers and speakers. To achieve these aims, the College encourages all students to participate in at least four proseminars and requires all students to complete the Writing Program and the Quantitative Literacy Requirement. 1. The Proseminar Program: Proseminars emphasize active participation and engagement in learning. Proseminars offer intensive interaction among students, and between students and instructors, through emphasis on writing, speaking and discussion, and other approaches to inquiry and expression that demand such intensive interaction. Courses designated as Proseminars are signified as such in the Academic Viewbook. List of Proseminar Courses 2. The Writing Program: Students must pass at least three writing-intensive courses, each taken in a different semester. The writing requirement must be completed by the end of the junior year. For further details about the Writing Program see "Standards for Written Work." List of Writing Intensive Courses 3. The Quantitative Literacy Requirement: Students must demonstrate basic quantitative literacy by passing a quantitative skills examination given during Orientation, or by passing a designated quantitative course or by completing a non-credit tutorial. For a detailed description and list of courses, see "Standards for Quantitative Work."
