Abstract
This report is based on a six‐month study designed to identify sources, needs and prospects for curricular and research support at Carleton College. Put into a larger context, the study is intended to be an important contribution to the College’s discussions about how best to align institutional resources with work demanded of contemporary students and faculty.
During the previous two years, discussions about how to more effectively provide curricular and research support have touched on five core elements: changing Carleton’s institutional culture to ensure curricular support is perceived as a resource for all students not just those who are struggling; accounting for differing needs of students, recognizing differences in class years or acculturation; recognizing the multifaceted roles that students, educational associates, staff members, and faculty members play in providing support; coordinating support efforts that span academic departments and offices; and providing expert reference among sources of curricular and research support on campus. These five elements are represented and more fully developed in this report.
