Catawba College
The vitality of Catawba College lies in its tradition of strong academic programs; sensitive, concerned but demanding faculty; diverse students who share a seriousness of purpose; successful, loyal graduates and informed, committed trustees. Catawba College has 27 buildings on 276 wooded acres. It is known for its 189-acre on-campus ecological preserve and its new 300-acre wildlife refuge. Over 1500 students representing over 25 states and several foreign countries attend Catawba. Of the 78 full-time teaching faculty employed in the fall of 2002, 67 percent held the doctorate or terminal degree in their discipline.
Catawba seeks to employ faculty members who not only are excellent teachers, but who also have the capacity to guide and challenge students through their interaction with them in clubs, scholastic organizations and athletic and social activities. Faculty are genuinely committed to the mission of the College which expresses concern for the total development of the student. The faculty-student ratio of approximately one-to-fifteen means that a faculty member is always available to aid and counsel a student and to offer support in the sometimes difficult developmental process. Former students often attribute their success to the fact that faculty members cared about them as persons, not just for their academic performance.
