The Power of
IndividualizedLearning
College should not be a one-size-fits-all experience.
Lawrence University believes students learn best when they’re educated as unique individuals — and we exert extraordinary energy making that happen. Nearly two-thirds of the courses we teach at Lawrence have the optimal (and rare) student-to-faculty ratio of 1 to 1.
You read that correctly: that’s one student working under the direct guidance of one professor.
Through independent study classes, honors projects, studio lessons, internships and Oxford-style tutorials — generally completed junior and senior year — students have abundant opportunities to put their unique signatures on their Lawrence experience.
What’s the end result? Generations of Lawrentians who are independent thinkers, creators, discoverers, problem-solvers, artists, researchers, writers, learners, citizens and leaders — all eminently prepared for a world that needs them.
That’s the power of individualized learning.

InspiredtostudyLorcaduringastudyabroadatUniversidaddeSalamanca, and reinforcedby a second research-driven
trip to Madrid funded by a Lawrence grant, Jen blendedtwo separate projects: a thesis (written in Spanish) onself-representation in Lorca’s poetry and art, and an artinstallation (shown here) that establishes a dialogue withLorca’sworkand image.The resultingwork is, “smartandwitty, provocative and thoughtful, conceptually fecund andvisuallyarresting,”saysherartprofessor,RobNeilson.
Jenwas“overwhelmedwithhowthingsturnedout,becausetheywent beyondwhat I expected.”Before heading to theUniversity of New Mexico for graduate work in Spanishand art, Jen will spend a year in Andalucia as a culturalambassador, teaching English and bridging American andSpanishculture.

Scoring films and awardsGARTH NEUSTADTERViolinandVocalPerformanceManitowoc,Wisconsin
GarthNeustadterandStevenSpielbergboth made their major debuts at theageof22.Perhapsthesimilaritywon’tendthere.
Garth’s career got off to a rousingstart when he was named First Prizewinner of the Turner Classic FilmComposersCompetition— judged byAcademy Award-winning composer,Hans Zimmer. The win netted him acommission to compose, record andproduce a 134-minute musical scoreforTurnerClassicMovies’ restorationofthesilentfilm,The White Sister.
Two years later, Neustadter won anASCAPFoundationMortonGouldYoungComposer Award, and he has sincescored a documentary about JohnMuirforLawrencealumna(andEmmy-winner)CatherineTatge’78.
Fred Sturm ’73, Kimberly-ClarkProfessor of Music and director ofjazz studies at Lawrence (and anaward-winning composer himself),mentored Neustadter. “The nationalrecognition he’s garnered as acomposer sometimes veils the factthat Garth is an equally talentedviolinist, saxophonist and singer. Yethe remains a respectful, humble andsolidly grounded individual. We’reenormouslyproudofhim.”
Garth is pursuing graduate studiesin composition at Yale, where he isalso an assistant director of Yale’sJazzEnsemble.

VINCE DYERPhilosophyandEnvironmentalScienceElmhurst,Illinois
AsaseniorattheHotchkissSchool(CT),Vince Dyer worked on a project to raiseawareness about green issues amonghis classmates. Four years later, for hisSenior ExperienceatLawrenceUniversity,Vinceworkedonaproject tochangethewaythewholecountrythinksabout“greenbuildings.”
With an interest in green architecture,Vince — under the guidance ofProfessor Marcia Bjørnerud and througha residential development internshipwith Lawrence Trustee Terry Franke ’68— turned his attention to green homes.“Given that they play such a dominantrole inournation’senergy consumption,there is no doubt that improving theirdesign, material use and constructionmethods should be a main goal of thegreenmovement.”
In his research, Vince identifiedshortcomings in two of the leadinghousehold green ratings systems,LEED and Passivhaus. So he designedCO2BALT, a more holistic rating systemthat incorporates the strengths andminimizesthedeficienciesofboth,helpinghomebuildersbebetter informed in theirchoicesofresourcesandsupplies.

Alternative EnergyWith 1,425 students on campus, writing,researching, downloading and doinglaundry, there isnoalternative toenergy.But there are plenty of alternatives forenergy, and Lawrence is researching andimplementing new options at an excitingpace. First, a student proposal led us toinstallasolararrayonYoungchildHall.NextawindturbinewillgoinatBjörklunden.Andanothersolararraywas justproposed forHiett Hall. If we can’t erase our footprintentirely,atleastwecantakelightersteps.
BeekeepingJust one more thing Lawrence Universityhas in common with the White House:bees. Lawrence has installed a colony ofhoneybees on campus to pollinate theorchard and other crops at SLUG — andlet’s not forget about all that delicioushoney. Not only will the honeybee colonybenefitthegarden(andtheotherbeautifulblooms), but — given the decline ofhoneybees worldwide — it will alsocontributetobiologicalandenvironmentalresearchoncampus.
It seems that nearly every college can brag about its new LEED-certified building (like we do about our new Warch Campus Center). And colleges love to show off their student-run, sustainable organic gardens. (Ours feeds our students in the aforementioned campus center.) And an increasing number of schools are exploring the use of alternative energy. (We’re no different.)

Multi-interested Multi-talented
Visit Lawrence’s campus, and you’ll have a hard time identifying a typical Lawrentian.
They come from every kind of family, from every kind of neighborhood,
from every kind of school, in every kind of town, city and country.
They are chemists and cellists, philosophers and philanthropists,
anthropologists and athletes(sometimes all in the same person).
They are not “undecided.”They are “multi-interested.”
They are intelligently smart,respectfully argumentative,
artistically analytical,creatively entrepreneurial
(often all in the same person).
It would be a point of pride to say that there really is no such thing as a typical Lawrentian — if Lawrentians were a prideful bunch.
One thing you will find among them is that they are here to take advantage of an environment fertile with opportunities and institutional support to encourage their individual talents, passions, ideas and aspirations.

Björklunden
Call it “Björklunden,” call it “Lawrence North,” “The Estate,” even “That Amazing Lodge on the Lake that I Can’t Pronounce.” Whatever you like, as long as you also call it home.
Björklunden vid Sjon, Lawrence University’s northern campus in Door County, Wisconsin, is 425 wooded acres along more than a mile of Lake Michigan shoreline. (Door County, by the way, is Wisconsin’s bed-and-breakfast heaven.) Nestled in the woods, just a stone’s throw from the shore, sits a beautiful lodge complete with bedrooms (sleeping about 100), large and small group spaces, a massive locally-quarried fireplace, a recital hall, and an outstanding view. And if you’re into bread pudding — and other fantastically prepared food — you’ll find yourself getting to Björklunden early and often.
About 75 percent of our students spend at least one weekend during the academic year “up North” for language immersion weekends, field research, cross-country workouts, creative writing workshops, ensemble bonding time and more. Unique opportunities await you, your classmates and professors just two hours away from Appleton.

Music@LawrenceLawrence University has a conservatory of music — you could even call it “world-class” and nobody would accuse you of hyperbole. While nearly a quarter of our students are enrolled in our conservatory, there are many ways to experience music at Lawrence (like the people in this photo). Note: it’s not every day we put three ensembles on the Memorial Chapel stage, but when Bobby McFerrin comes to campus, it’s fitting and proper to have parts of the Lawrence Symphony Orchestra, Jazz Ensemble and Hybrid Ensemble up there.

Freshman Studies
An Introduction to the Liberal Arts … the
Lawrence WayFew colleges have a first-year requirement like Freshman Studies. From 11:10 to 12:20 each Monday, Wednesday and Friday of your first two terms, you and your classmates (in classrooms of 14 to 15) will explore about a dozen compelling works from a common reading list, which changes every year. Your guides will be faculty from all across the university (e.g., you might have a philosopher first term and a geologist second term) who will show you that you don’t have to be an expert in a particular subject to understand and draw value from it. Freshman Studies will challenge you to become a strong college writer, confident debater and critical questioner.
Those musical notes on the cover of this viewbook? It’s the bassoon solo that opens Stravinsky’s classic, The Rite of Spring, a major 20th-century composition.
Identity theft among 16th-century French peasants gets a fresh, critical look.
Let’s hear it for the allegory of the cave! On the menu since Freshman Studies started in 1945, Plato has given generations of Lawrentians a common bond.
The plays may change from year to year, but you can usually count on The Bard being on The List.
Kurosawa’s epic film may make a film studies major out of you.
Dinosaurs, Darwin and DiMaggio all in the same book? Count us in!
Social psychology at its controversial finest, observing when obedience and conscience collide.
An EngagedCommunity
Lawrence’s 1,425 students come from nearly every state and more than 50 countries to enjoy the distinctive benefits of this engaged and engaging community. It’s a close-knit, residential, 24/7 campus filled with smart, talented and interesting people who live active (and apparently sleepless) lives outside the classroom.
On the following pages are just a few — OK, way more than a few — ways you can form meaningful connections both within and beyond the Lawrence community.
Good luck narrowing down your choices ...

CabaretFor more than three decades, Cabaret has been one of the most anticipated events on the campus calendar. Hosted every April by Lawrence International — which organizes cultural events for the Lawrence community throughout the year — Cabaret is a celebration of life through music, song, dance and (of course) cuisine from around the world. Not to be missed.

Life AfterLawrence
Where Do Lawrence Graduates Go?People often ask, “What do you do with a Lawrence degree?” We like to reframe the question as, “How do you do with a Lawrence degree?” (The answer is: “Very well.”) All over the world, you’ll find Fulbright Scholars, cardiologists, professional musicians, patent attorneys, CEOs, entrepreneurs, high school principals, teachers, actors, financial investors — you name it — who all got their start at Lawrence. They are interesting people leading interesting lives.
And while the chart and lists below show you what our students have done within six months of graduation, it’s important to remember that a Lawrence education will prepare you not only for that first step right out of college, but for every step you take for the rest of your life.
