Dowling College

DOWLING COLLEGE WAS AN INDEPENDENT COMPREHENSIVE EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTION IN THE LIBERAL ARTS TRADITION WHOSE MISSION WAS TO PROVIDE OUR STUDENTS WITH A WELL-ROUNDED EDUCATION BASED UPON INNOVATIVE TEACHING, INFORMED AND ENGAGING RESEARCH, AND A COMMITMENT TO DEMOCRATIC CITIZENSHIP WITH A COMMUNITY SERVICE COMPONENT. WE FOSTERED AN OPEN AND SUPPORTIVE LEARNING ENVIRONMENT THAT WAS BASED UPON COLLABORATION BETWEEN A COMMITTED AND SUPPORTIVE EXPERT FACULTY AND A STUDENT BODY DIVERSE IN ITS INTERESTS, BELIEFS, CULTURE, ETHNICITY, AND GEOGRAPHIC ORIGIN. WE RECOGNIZED LEARNING AS A LIFETIME ENDEAVOR, PARTICULARLY AS IT RELATES TO GLOBALIZATION. THE COLLEGE UPHELD ITS EDUCATIONAL MISSION THROUGH TEACHING, LEARNING AND RESEARCH IN THE ARTS, SCIENCES AND PROFESSIONS SUCH AS EDUCATION, BUSINESS AND AVIATION, AND BY PROVIDING MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY AND DOWLING ALUMNI WITH OPPORTUNITIES FOR CONTINUING EDUCATION.
