Johnston Center for Integrative Studies
Design your own education
Groundbreaking living-learning program where you'll find a level of academic freedom like you've never experienced, with independent studies, interdisciplinary academic programs, narrative evaluations instead of grades, and a 社区 of students and 教师 interested in your ideas.
约翰斯顿是什么??
The Johnston educational experiment started as a college in 1969 and is based in the notion that students should have ownership of their education. At the Johnston Center, we honor the individual path and the collective process. 这意味着学生, 教师, and staff learn from each other, and we learn best when we learn together.
The degree from the Johnston Center is a degree from the University of 雷德兰兹. When the student writes their Sophomore Graduation Contract during the beginning of their second year, the student and their academic advisor will determine if the degree will be a Bachelor of Arts or Bachelor of Science. 这个文档, the Sophomore Graduation Contract, is essentially a map or a plan that brings together classes from multiple departments, experiential learning, and cross-cultural experiences to fulfill an educational vision.
Prospective students and families
Experience academic freedom along with responsibility: create your course of study and shape the way you work, 你学到了什么, and the feedback you receive from 教师 through contracting
Gain important soft skills: in the shifting landscape of the job market, a Johnston education will allow you to graduate with the skills you need to succeed no matter what you study: communication, 协作, 解决问题, 批判性思维, 谈判
Practice self-governance with intention: Johnston is a consensus-based, intentional 社区 where students work together to spend our 社区 budget on speakers, 现场音乐活动, 编程, 社区 and academic projects. We also use a consensus-based restorative justice model to deal with conduct issues and other things that cause harm to the 社区.
