We're continuing our series this fall with two more seminars focused on “Measuring the Liberal Arts." The seminars will feature path-breaking projects seeking to develop and refine measures of undergraduate education, and especially its liberal arts components, and to determine its impact on the present and future lives of students. Join us for the second seminar on Friday, October 23.
Stay in touch with the series and continue the conversation via social using #collegeandbeyondii. Visit our Past Events page for more information on previous events and live recordings.

The Next Generation Undergraduate Success Measurement Project, funded by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, is an exploratory project to develop and implement a state-of-the-art measurement project to improve our understanding of the value of undergraduate educational experiences, and promote evidence-based models of undergraduate student success. The research team will present the project framework and design, as well as preliminary findings about students’ academic achievement, academic engagement, mental health, and new challenges and responsibilities in times of the COVID-19 pandemic.
