GSW's Office of Experiential Learning is positioned to help students gain experiences that will help them think critically, solve problems, work appropriately with diverse populations, and figure out how to solve multifaceted problems faced in the real world. A growing amount of evidence suggests that experiential learning is a cornerstone to helping students develop those skills.
