4. Teaching Philosophy Statement:
My educational goals for students are to:
a)
b) think creatively by always being for something by identifying possible
solutions in response to the issues that matter most;
c) find ways to act upon their responsibilities as a student at our university
and as a citizen of our planet.
Fundamentally, Integrative Learning gives students and faculty interactive ways to use the
knowledge and tools they are exploring and learning in the classroom with practical
engagement in the community to impact the real world with pro-active solutions.

to change the
outcome of an
election”
“I'm not required to vote,
and I don't have the time
to fill out all of the
paperwork”
“Because it helps
elect government
officials”
“Because the
president runs the
country”
“Elections are rigged
anyway so voting won’t
change that” (this one
made me laugh)
“Because it has the
biggest effect on
national policy”
“I don't know, it just is”

Our Community discovers that the kids are all right!

15. “For to be Free is not merely
to cast off one’s chains, but to
live in a way that respects
and enhances the freedom of
others.”
Nelson Mandela (1918-2013) sums it up best:
