Mission
The mission of Earlham College, an independent, residential college, is to provide the highest quality undergraduate education in the liberal arts, including the sciences, shaped by the distinctive perspectives of the Religious Society of Friends (Quakers). The College provides extensive opportunities for students and faculty to learn from each other in a cooperative community, an important aspect of which is collaborative student/faculty research. At Earlham College, education is carried on with a concern for the world in which we live and for improving human society. Therefore, Earlham stresses global education, peaceful resolution of conflict, equality of persons, and high moral standards of personal conduct.
