The "bookend" to our nationally recognized Freshman Studies program, Senior Experience is the capstone of a Lawrence liberal arts education that fulfills the promise of individualized learning. Every senior completes a project to demonstrate proficiency in their major field of study, to integrate knowledge and skills gained through study at Lawrence, and to establish independence as a scholar or creative artist. The best projects emphasize personal interests and talents, community engagement, and pathways to life after Lawrence.
Students should discuss their Senior Experience plans with their faculty advisors during the junior year. Grants are available to encourage students to pursue ambitious or distinctive projects and to support department Senior Experience activities. See the sidebar for more information.
