Quinnipiac University

According to its mission statement, Quinnipiac university "inspires students to learn how to work independently both in and outside the classroom to gain a closer and more complex sense of themselves as citizens, intellectuals and human beings. Through the University Curriculum, intentional learning is fostered by studying human cultures, artistic and literary expressions, the physical and natural worlds, and the forces that have shaped and continue to shape our world. Students develop a flexible and open mind, the capacity to learn from others, effective communication skills and the ability to influence potential solutions to global problems." [Source]
