“My students are always kind of surprised to learn about what they have missed, what they haven't been paying attention to all their lives.”
Natural Sciences Professor Laura Alexander
The Harrington Center is your resource for Academic Advising, Career Development, Internships, and Study Abroad. We are located in the Susan Colgate Cleveland Library Learning Center. Our office hours are 8:00a.m. to 5:00 p.m. with walk-in hours available from 1:00 to 4:00p.m. Monday through Thursday.
The services provided by the Harrington Center align with the college's strategic themes: Engaged Learning, Living Sustainably, Linking to the World and Dynamic Devotion to Excellence. Our programs and services engage students in self-understanding and skill development related to academic and career choices, they link students to the world through internships and study abroad experiences and demonstrate excellence through the success of our graduates.
Over a five year period 94% of our graduates are employed or attending graduate school within six months after commencement. Of those students 85% are working in positions related to their majors. One reason for our graduates' success is the internship program and the requirement that students complete at least one internship or field experience in order to graduate. In a five year average 31% of Colby-Sawyer graduates are hired by their internship sites.
