CSR Profile of College of Arts & Sciences – Lipscomb University

As at most universities, the core of every college student’s education is the arts and sciences. They teach a student to write, communicate, think, understand, analyze. And Lipscomb's College of Arts and Sciences prepares its graduates well. We are a college with a proud history of successful graduates. In fact, the acceptance rate of our graduates to their choices for medical, professional and graduate schools far, far exceeds the national average. We believe that a large part of this is the "360" education delivered in the College of Arts and Sciences:

  • A faith-based component challenges students to find their spirit.
  • An emphasis on community and service, through the university's service learning requirement, adds depth to every LU graduate’s life preparation.
  • Instruction is delivered primarily by creative and scholarly Ph.D.-level instructors with excellent student/teacher ratios (5-18 student class size on average) that permit important individual nurturing, learning depth and a confident student.
  • Academic rigor that includes almost 20 major study disciplines.
  • Interdisciplinary teaching "connects the dots" between the arts and sciences and other disciplines to produce a well-rounded graduate. Within the CAS faculty, are a number of excellent spokespeople in several key areas including (but, of course, not limited to): Family and consumer issues New journalism and digital communication Political commentary Societal issues around law and justice Psychology Sustainability and sustainable practices Civic leadership Faith and science
