The Impact of Dickinson College's Useful Liberal-Arts Education

For more than 230 years, Dickinson College has been providing a revolutionary education to its students. Through a distinctive brand of the liberal arts and sciences, the college prepare students for the future—whatever it may bring.

“Early in my career, I felt quite well prepared from my Dickinson education,” says Steve Smith ’92, president and CEO of L.L.Bean.

Dickinson's three pillars—global study, sustainability and civic engagement—draw undergraduate students from across the nation and around the world. And when they come here, they explore the world anew, with around 60 percent of our students studying abroad. When it’s time to graduate, the world is their comfort zone.

Just ask Maureen Moroz ’19: “Everything I’ve learned inside the classroom [and] everything I’ve learned outside the classroom has prepared me to do more than what the world demands of me.”
