Reflection and Projection

As part of their FYE Checklist students are invited to formally reflect on their educational goals by completing a Reflection and Projection (RAP) exercise. The is accessible from mid-July until the end of August and asks students to comment on the following questions. 

  • Why do you think a liberal arts education is important and meaningful in the 21st century? 
  • Why are you attending 91¾«¼ò°æ and what do you hope to explore while here? 
  • What topics are most intellectually stimulating and enjoyable to you? 
  • What topics do you approach with the most trepidation or anxiety?
  • In what circumstances, inside or outside the classroom, have you learned or grown the most, and why?
  • What do you hope to achieve after one year at 91¾«¼ò°æ?

Students will be able to add to their RAP throughout their time at 91¾«¼ò°æ. As their seminar instructor you will have access to their responses, and you may choose to discuss their answers with them during your first advising and seminar meetings.
