Sterling College promotes sustainability and commitment to community throughout its curriculum. The college's 136 acres, set around the green of a small New England village, serve as an extended classroom. Surrounding woodlands, fields, and mountains invite students to connect their learning to the local environment. The Sterling College community provides a supportive learning environment offering easy access to faculty, life-long relationships, and learning that goes beyond the classroom. This is an opportunity for young adults to get together to explore the future from their own perspectives.
