Hands-on

What could you do if you only had the resources? Read about our student’s every day adventures.

"I’ve spent most of my life working on Native American history because ultimately it means rethinking the history of this continent. There’s no better place to do it than a college with its own Indian history, with an ongoing commitment to Native education and Native American studies, and with Native students in all my classes."

 "As the world becomes smaller, our classrooms expand. One of the main goals of a liberal arts education is to prepare our undergraduates to welcome the various challenges they will face in our ever-shrinking world, inhabited by racially, culturally, linguistically different peoples."

"I am passionate about my artistic practice because it allows me additional ways of existing in the world. I enjoy teaching simply because I am exposed to the endlessly diverse minds of students. All students are unique and have something to teach."

"In the classroom, I strive to let my enthusiasm for science, the Earth, and the environment guide my teaching. It’s amazing to work with such bright and engaged students every day. My favorite moments are when a student tells me, “I took this class for a distributive requirement—I never thought I would love Earth science!"

"I see my role in teaching and mentoring students as someone who opens the door to an area, shows them the wonders, excites them, and then guides them through their self-driven exploration in the area. Motivation and passion are the best teacher, so I strive to motivate students by exposing them to the latest research and influential ideas in the field."

"I try to give students not only historical knowledge and awareness, but also the tools to carefully evaluate evidence and arguments, to look beyond obvious answers, and to reflect fairly and seriously on the legacies of U.S. foreign policy for the contemporary world. I love teaching at Dartmouth because of the interaction between teaching and research."
