Reaching Each Student - Every Day
A Place to Learn, Live and Grow
The Residential Education program seeks to provide students with a holistic living/learning environment that is conducive to development in all aspects of life. At Colby-Sawyer, a strong emphasis is placed on opportunities for growth in directions that support student mastery of the College's learning objectives as outlined in the Mission statement. The College is committed to learning in and outside of the classroom in a community environment that celebrates diversity, coequal education, cultural awareness, and responsible citizenship. All activities, as well as the atmosphere within the hall, should serve as a complement to the formal academic program.
On the following pages you will have the opportunity to explore the benefits and experiences students share through campus living at Colby-Sawyer College. Thank You For Joining Us.

What You'll Do
One of the highest priorities for the Residential Education staff is to provide opportunities for student learning. We believe that the learning that happens in the residence halls should complement and enhance the learning that happens in the classroom.
