Abstract

Iwent to my first National Collegiate Honors Council conference just this last year and was sitting in a session on national scholarships when the phrase “learning outcomes” came up. I turned to the woman behind me with whom I’d been briefly chatting before the session began and asked if this kind of evaluative structure was being implemented at her university.
