STUDENT HANDBOOK

2007-2008

The mission of Occidental College is to provide a gifted and diverse group of students with a total educational experience of the highest quality—one that prepares them for leadership in an increasingly complex, interdependent and pluralistic world. The distinctive interdisciplinary and multicultural focus of the College’s academic program seeks to foster both the fulfillment of individual aspirations and a deeply-rooted commitment to the public good.

This Handbook contains official policies, regulations, and guidelines for students at Occidental College. The departments that publish these policies, regulations, and guidelines may revise or withdraw them without notice. The College makes every effort to inform the community of changes; however, students are responsible for monitoring updates as they occur.
