Lewis & Clark College is a private institution with a public conscience, a residential campus with a global reach. Students and faculty pursue new ways of knowing and combining classic liberal learning with pioneering collaboration. Our students represent the next generation of global thinkers and leaders, unafraid to discard conventional thinking, civic complacency, and outmoded preconceptions. What makes us unique? How about the inspiring beauty of our natural setting, on 137 wooded acres in the southwest hills of Portland, Oregon? Or our commitment to interdisciplinary, experiential, and rigorous academic learning done in partnership with our impressive faculty? Or the staggering percentage of our students who take part in one of our renowned study abroad programs? Lewis & Clark is a place where agile minds come to learn, to explore, and to work together!
