At Earlham, this education is carried on with a concern for the world in which we live and for improving human society. Earlham is nationally recognized for its commitment to undergraduate teaching and its international orientation. Students from 45 states and 67 countries study on the 800-acre wooded campus, located along the historic National Road US 40. Two-thirds of the faculty have led at least one of the college’s off-campus study programs in locations spanning Asia, Latin America, Europe, Africa and the Middle East. While only one percent of the nation’s undergraduates study abroad, 73 percent of each Earlham graduating class has studied outside the United States. The privilege of study at Earlham brings with it the responsibility to live lives of significance — to make a difference. Generations of alumni are testimony to this conviction. Throughout the world, Earlham alumni are scientists, teachers, lawyers, ministers, executives, physicians, writers — concerned leaders, involved citizens and caring parents — achieving their personal goals while working for the common good. Excellence, Leadership, and Service . . . the basis of the exceptional education Franklin College students receive. Our liberal arts college is well known for its outstanding faculty and academic programs that promote critical thinking, effective communication, creativity, and innovation. Franklin is where lasting relationships are formed with professors, who are often called upon for guidance long after graduation. It’s where students have a unique opportunity to grow and where leaders are born. Franklin College prepares students for productive and satisfying lives of excellence in more than 40 widely recognized areas of study, including education, journalism, pre-med, and business. The overall placement rate for Franklin grads is almost 95 percent. Leadership is part of everything learned at Franklin, one of only a few colleges with leadership studies built throughout the curriculum. The beautiful, wooded campus is located just 20 minutes south of downtown Indianapolis. In the month of January, students may participate in a month-long winter term, offering specialized study, travel abroad, and internship opportunities. Although the course offerings change annually, past examples include studies in civil rights, theology and film, public relations, journalism, and the Indiana Legislature. International travel has included studies in Belize, Greece, and Italy. Students also have the opportunity for month-long internships with companies such as Eli Lilly & Company, Dow Chemical, WellPoint, and the Indianapolis Star. Franklin is home to more than 60 student organizations, through which students build friendships, social skills, and professional competence. Community service is an integral part of Franklin College life, with students contributing roughly 10,000 volunteer hours to the local community. With its longstanding tradition of athletics, Franklin now offers 16 Division III level men’s and women’s teams. 12 http://www.franklincollege.edu http://www.earlham.edu http://www.earlham.edu http://www.franklincollege.edu
