College was created explicitly for high purposes- to prepare young
people, by means of a useful education in the liberal
arts and sciences, for engaged lives of citizenship and leadership
in the service of society. Founded by Dr. Benjamin Rush,
a signer of the Declaration of Independence, the college was
chartered in 1783, just days after the conclusion of the
American Revolution with the specific purpose of preparing the citizens
and leaders who would ensure the success of the new
democracy. It was to offer a distinctively original form of
American education - one that was rigorously rooted in the
traditional liberal arts and was, at the same time, innovative,
forward-looking and ultimately useful. It was a revolutionary education designed
for a revolutionary age. As we face the challenges and
complexities of the 21st century, Dickinson continues to seek direction
from this revolutionary heritage within a contemporary context. A Dickinson
education prepares its graduates to become engaged citizens by incorporating
a global vision that permeates the entire student experience, creating
a community of inquiry that allows students to cross disciplinary
boundaries and make new intellectual connections, and encouraging students to
be enterprising and active by engaging their communities, the nation
and the world. Dickinson offers a liberal arts education
that is distinctive in purpose and approach. Our founders intended
Dickinson graduates to use their liberal arts education as a
powerful agent of change to advance the lot of humankind. We expect no less today. Location/Contact
