AN EDUCATION

LIKE NO OTHER

Today, some 200 talented and passionate students live and learn together as members of the Johnston Center, which includes two residence halls, faculty offices, a coffee house, classrooms, and community spaces. As a student in Johnston, you shape your own education by crafting your unique emphasis, Johnston’s version of a major. Through Johnston, you can pursue traditional classes as well as seminars that connect multiple disciplines. Here in this vibrant community, you debate and challenge ideas with faculty and peers. When classes end, Johnston students and professors can be found discussing current events, listening to music, or reading favorite quotes on the Bekins porch. Once a week, the community gathers to discuss issues and make decisions through consensus.
