Uraian Tempat

Washington College is situated in one of the most lovingly preserved communities in the United States, on the scenic Chester River on Maryland's Eastern Shore. It holds a significant place in the history of American higher education. Its heritage as the first college of the new nation-founded in 1782 under the patronage of nation's first president-lives on today in the commitment to educating confident citizens and leaders capable of advancing the democratic and civic traditions of founding fathers. It welcomes people of all backgrounds and beliefs who wish to participate in a diverse educational community. It strives to be a place where all students, faculty, administrators, and staff are able to live, study, and work in an atmosphere free from bias and harassment. The College encourages civil debate and the lively exchange of ideas in the belief that such exchanges promote understanding that will grow beyond simple tolerance of difference to embracing and celebrating the richness of diversity. The graduates acquire knowledge and learn skills that help them thrive in a culturally diverse world. It seeks to develop in its students the habits of analytic thought, aesthetic insight, imagination, ethical sensitivity, and clarity of expression. These qualities of the mind are the result of excellent teaching, of active inquiry, and of a wide range of experiences and social interactions in an intimate community of cultural, social, and political diversity. The College also strives to enrich the cultural and intellectual life of its regional community.

Residential Life program provides students with opportunities and experiences that help them to develop responsibilities both to themselves and to their fellow students. It attempts to provide a relaxing and calm atmosphere for study and day-to-day living. The Washington College campus has 30 residence halls with a total capacity of 950 students. A Resident Assistant (RA) is assigned to a floor and/or Residence Hall. The RA helps to build a community of respect within the residence halls by developing individual relationships and group programming. Students have the ability to make their living environments exceptional for living and learning by becoming active in the community, taking part in exceptional programs and activities, and by getting to know and respect the fellow students through defining and implementing a set of community standards that compliment the spirit of residential living and the mission of Washington College. Each student is supplied with an extra long twin size bed, dresser, desk, chair, and closet. As there is no summer storage, all possessions must be taken home at the end of the academic year. All residence halls have the following amenities: Phone lines for on-campus and local phone calls (local phone calls require students to use a PIN number that will be provided on move-in day); cable television service; Ethernet and wireless internet connectivity and laundry facilities. Students may purchase laundry cards at the bookstore located in the Casey Academic Center.
