Some of my most fulfilling experiences have been with students who came in knowing literally nothing about math. They were scared to death and they wound up becoming experts in the field.

Learning Beyond the Classroom

At New College what goes on outside the classroom is as important as what happens inside. 

You can join an archaeological dig, intern at a world-class museum, instill a love of science in elementary students and assist in the pathology lab at a leading Alzheimer’s research center. 

Shadow a physician, conduct manatee research at a leading marine laboratory, submit a film for discussion at the Filmmaker’s Forum, or guide visitors on the Myakka State Park tree canopy walkway. 

New College students also know what it means to commit to a cause. Each year, our students participate in hundreds of community activities and service projects – some college-sponsored, others initiated and run by students.

They knit blankets for cancer patients, help underprivileged high-school students prepare for college, collect books for African schools, and raise awareness of violence against women in children.  There’s even a club called “Random Acts of Kindness.” Check out a complete list of clubs and organizations on campus.
