How do we assess a process that results in an artifact so abstract and subjective?
What evidence can we point to that students have engaged in responsible readings, critical thinking, and clear
communication?

Goals for Honors College Co-Curricular Activities:
Honors College co-curricular activities foster an excitement for knowledge, a passion for ideas, the capacity to rejoice at demonstrations of creativity, and the compassion generated by a shared community. • How can we possibly assess excitement, passion, joy, and compassion?
• Do we care about the student’s personal development and growth?
• The ability to apply academic skills to problem-solving situations that are not generated by the formal learning environment of the classroom?
• The love for lifelong learning?
• The willingness to take risks and to stretch academic, social, and personal limits?
• Do we want to build ethical leadership? We have to value the responses we receive to surveys, questionnaires, interviews, testimonials, observations, self-evaluations about the various co-curricular activities administered by the Honors College.
