- Fostering connections among students, faculty, and staff
- Helping students to become responsible, actively engaged learners
- Teaching students to identify and access sources of support
- Encouraging vibrant teaching partnerships which promote richer and more flexible pedagogies and teaching practices
- Enabling faculty to build connections among disciplines and create more engaged classrooms
- Fostering increased conversation among faculty beyond the learning communities
