Mc Daniel College

From its founding in the U.S. state of Maryland in 1867, McDaniel College has aimed to foster a diverse student-centered community committed to excellence, seeking opportunities for global learning and engagement. With careful mentoring and attention to the individual, McDaniel changes lives. We challenge students to develop their unique potentials with reason, imagination, and human concern. Through flexible academic programs, collaborative and experiential learning, and global engagement, McDaniel prepares students for successful lives of leadership, service, and social responsibility. McDaniel College strives to place students at the center of a humane environment so that they may see and work toward their personal goals while respecting others and sharing the responsibility for the common good. We believe that liberally educated men and women think and act critically, creatively, and humanely. They take charge of their lives and develop their unique potentials with reason, imagination, and human concern. They take their place in the global community, understanding their responsibilities to aid individuals and to contribute to the larger society. McDaniel College accepts the challenge to provide an academic and social environment that promotes intellectual, personal, and professional learning and growth. McDaniel College works to live out these First Principles to support our vision of our college community.
