PHILOSOPHY ON STUDENT LIFE
Sewanee expects students to be engaged, honorable, and responsible citizens of the community and the college.
The Student Life Division believes that holistic human development requires a constant inquiry of meaningful questions. We ask our students to consider
⇒ Who am I?
⇒ What are my gifts?
⇒ What is my place in the world?
Our goal is to support programs and processes that encourage and facilitate consideration of these questions by developing the following:
⇒ Mentorship
⇒ Autonomy and responsibility
⇒ Ethical and critical decision-making
⇒ Effective communication
⇒ Abilities in problem solving
⇒ Engaged and honorable citizenship
⇒ Global perspectives that develop respect and consideration for others.
