Learning Outcomes
OC3 learning outcomes derive from our mission, vision, and values.
Holistic Leadership
Integrating character and values to inspire others to engage in civic and communal social change. To be authentic in relationships by demonstrating meaningful dialogue, critical and empathetic listening, and promoting advocacy for the self as well as others. The ability to be recognized not by what one does, but who they are.
Cultural Engagement
Demonstrating a connection to the world around them and the importance of intersectional identities. Acknowledging that communities express a variety of identities and diversity and that none of them are monolithic-- that individual members hold multiple identities that shape their cultural and community engagements. To put into practice social empathy in order to build bridges across intolerance.
Cross-Campus Collaborations
Establishing synergistic relationships with various campus members (faculty, staff, students, and alumni) to cultivate a collective vision towards critical consciousness, social justice, and inclusion that will foster leaders of change on and off campus.
Courageous Living
Willingness to take risks with promoting one’s authentic self, values, and beliefs through expanding our sense of purpose.
