Beck, Victoria Simpson; Boys, Stephanie K.; Haas, Hannah J.; King, Karen N.

Historically, a liberal arts education was thought to "liberate" students from the narrow perspective of experiential learning. Paradoxically, experiential learning is increasingly being used to broaden a liberal arts education. This chapter provides a discussion on three signature experiential learning practices, and suggests these practices can be implemented across disciplines to enrich the learning experience.
