教育经历

文理学院(SLA)的学生享受小班教学, 是什么导致了我们教师的积极指导, who direct students to opportunities they might never anticipate before coming here. 学生们在罗斯福总统博物馆进行原创研究 & 图书馆; present their work at national and international conferences; share their expertise with community partners here in Dutchess County; and complete internships in locations as close as Manhattan or Albany, 或通过英国和其他地方的项目进行国际交流. 通过他们无尽的好奇心, 努力工作, 战略规划, students--with the help of faculty--prepare themselves to truly make a difference in the world beyond Marist.

 

 

本科生研究和创造性工作

在工作中与他人和教职员工密切合作, English majors at Marist actively take part in wider conversations surrounding poetry, 小说, 和奖学金. The boundary between the English classroom and the world beyond is a highly permeable one. 学生们阅读内战文学作品和档案材料, 然后前往葛底斯堡亲自参观战争遗址和文物. Well-supported scholarly arguments and carefully crafted poetry are shared not just with classmates, but with attendees at gatherings such as the annual conference of 西格玛τ δ, 全国英语荣誉协会. 学生们也以数字形式分享他们的创新. 书万岁 是一本由Dr. 安吉拉·拉夫伦的高级顶点课程.

 

学生俱乐部 & 领导机会

The rich variety of clubs provide the SLA with a strong sense of community and many opportunities for active student leadership. 俱乐部和附属组织包括:

• 文艺会, 哪个组织协调各种聚会, 包括一年一度的“哈利波特之夜”和一年一度的诗歌盛会.

实习

实习 provide a crucial way for SLA students to explore their professional futures. Over half of SLA students complete an internship during their undergraduate years, and it is not uncommon for students in this group to complete two or more at different sites. Students may choose to take advantage of the College's proximity to New York City: venues for recent SLA internships in Manhattan include Pegasus Press and Us Magazine. 另一个选择是 奥尔巴尼暑期实习计划, which enables students to gain an insider’s perspective on political communications, 政治, 以及纽约州首府的公共政策. Other students find placements in the Hudson River Valley region or complete an on-campus internship in Archives & 卡纳维诺图书馆的特别收藏, 在写作中心, 或者在哈德逊河谷研究所. Students also regularly complete internships as part of their international study in the United Kingdom, 澳大利亚, 还有其他网站.

 

全球经验

International study has become a defining aspect of the academic culture in the SLA. Cross-cultural inquiry and global awareness are not only central to the disciplinary focus of the Department of World Languages and Cultures and the Global Studies minor, 还有其他专业. 政治科学系, 例如, offers students opportunities to intern with the Hansard Society Scholars Programme in London and to participate in the Student World Affairs Conference held in the Hudson River Valley. Both the 历史 and English Departments offer short-term study abroad programs (see below).

SLA students' high level of participation in semester-long or short-term abroad programs (approximately 50 percent of 2016 SLA graduates) changes the conversation both within and beyond the classroom. Students have enjoyed substantial success in their ability to earn Fulbright Fellowships and other prestigious grants to facilitate their international study.
