Connecting Learning, Life and Community
Supporting Linfield's Mission
Our office connects Linfield students as members of the campus, community, and global society. We bridge students' theoretical and practical knowledge through experiential learning opportunities. We foster critical thinking, problem-solving and multicultural competencies, and empower students to become engaged citizens and agents of social and environmental change.
