Mr. Burris thanked the guests for their input and said he and the committee found their comments very helpful. We empower individuals to succeed which comes from our social construct. Good academics is a given. Students are individuals this is their home. Social comments tie into the classroom creating an atmosphere to learn.
Students relationships with professors are very strong.
Our human interaction treats people as individuals. Our objective should be to provide an environment to nurture our strengths, find a balance to sustain the environment. Liberal arts is a process. We need to figure out what happens during the process and how to enhance it. Our science program is unusual in that it starts with a low percentage of students interested in science and grows most colleges start with higher percentage of students and lose numbers.
