Institutional Learning Goals and Objectives
The mission of Oberlin College and Conservatory is to educate students for lives of intellectual, musical, and artistic rigor and breadth; sustained inquiry, creativity, and innovation; and leadership. Oberlin aims to prepare graduates with the knowledge, skills, and perspectives essential to confront complex issues and to create change and value in the world. Oberlin is committed to educational access and opportunity. It seeks to offer a diverse and inclusive residential learning environment, encourage a free and respectful exchange of ideas, and share an enduring commitment to a sustainable and just society. The goals underlying Oberlin’s mission are given fuller explication in the division-specific Learning Goals and Outcomes articulated by the faculties of the college and the conservatory. Although the college and the conservatory learning goals and outcomes are distinct, with each division’s goals speaking in particular ways to the aspirations and needs of its students, they nevertheless are commonly rooted in–and together give the fullest flowering to–the core values animating Oberlin and its work, namely, an abiding commitment on the part of students, faculty, staff, and trustees to educational excellence, diversity and community, stewardship, and sustainability. Board of Trustees
The Board of Trustees is the governing body of Oberlin College and Conservatory. It manages the welfare of the institution and entrusts day-to-day operations to the president. Oberlin’s board has 29-37 members and completes its work through an executive committee and various subcommittees. The board consists of 20-28 board-elected members and six alumni-elected members. Trustees serve four-year terms. There are also three class trustees elected by recent graduating classes to serve three-year terms. The final member of the board is the president of Oberlin College and Conservatory, who serves ex officio.
