The Lasting impressions

Lewis and Clark set out on their expedition in May of 1804. They were leaving St. Louis, Missouri and traveling a 4,000-mile trek across unchartered land. They and their team were part of the Corps of Discovery team. Which would be like a modern day military discovery team. As they set out on the trip of the newly chartered Louisiana Purchase, equipped with the most advanced technology. Neither Lewis or Clark or Jefferson knew just what type of impression this expedition would leave on the country. After making the 4,000-mile journey they passed the modern day city Portland, Oregon. In 1867 the Lewis and Clark College was founded.

This school is based on the principles and ideas of what the expedition was about. The Lewis and Clark school uses classical liberal learning methods and pioneering in news way to learn, teach, and grow. This school is a very small liberal arts college. 

With only 3,592 students among the three colleges of the university, this school has gained a lot of recognition in last few years and is ranked high among other liberal arts schools!

Their mission is this “The mission of Lewis & Clark is to know the traditions of the liberal arts, to test their boundaries through ongoing exploration, and to hand on to successive generations the tools and discoveries of this quest.” (http://www.lclark.edu/about/mission_statement/)
