Oberlin College,
an independent coeducational institution, holds a distinguished place
among American colleges and universities. Oberlin was the first college
to grant undergraduate degrees to women and historically was a leader in
the educating of blacks; its heritage is one of respect for the
individual and active concern for the larger society. The College
uniquely combines an outstanding professional school of music with a
leading undergraduate college of arts and sciences. The two divisions
reinforce each other. The Conservatory provides flexible programs to
prepare students as professional musicians and teachers of music. Deeply
committed to academic excellence, the College of Arts and Sciences
offers a rich and balanced curriculum in the humanities, social
sciences, and sciences. Within that framework the College expects that
students will work closely with the faculty to design an educational
program appropriate to their own particular interests, needs, and
long-term goals.
Oberlin's faculty is dedicated to
combining effective undergraduate instruction with productive
scholarship and artistry. Members of the faculty are highly skilled
and professional, well-grounded in their chosen discipline; yet they
characteristically have interests that extend beyond their own
specialization. The College seeks to recognize and encourage teaching
of unusually high caliber, and scholarly and other creative activities
are considered essential to continued teaching excellence. Thus,
active research, scholarship, artistry, and/or performance is expected
of each faculty member.
Oberlin College enjoys an exceptional physical plant including libraries, art museum, computing center, scientific laboratories, physical education facilities, concert halls, and practice rooms. Creating an environment in which academic excellence can flourish, these attractive physical resources are important to realizing the aims of the College.
