That's what a recent Oberlin admissions brochure asked prospective students. To those of us familiar with the College, whether as graduates, as parents of current or former students, or in my case as a trustee, the message rang true. Oberlin continues to seek out young men and women intent on making the world a better place. Oberlin students will spend their entire adult lives in the 21st century, with all the promise and challenge that entails. We seek nothing less than to strengthen and prepare Oberlin for the challenges and opportunities of a new century.
