Abstract:

Ernest Boyer is recognized for his vision of the "New American College", and ideal that incorporates service and the scholarships of application, discovery, research, teaching, and integration. The New American College has three priorities: clarifying the curriculum; connecting to the world beyond the classroom; and creating a campus community. Boyer found ways in which the New American College could develop connections where links had been lost, broken, or not yet built. (AT)
