A new definition of teaching is offered, and attention is directed to active learning, assessing student progress, and enlisting students as coinquirers. The following topics concerning institutional support are addressed: changing the environment, integrating commuter students, improving residential life, expanding cross-cultural experiences, creating cross-disciplinary seminars, organizing campus think tanks, assessing programs, assuring administrative support, and revitalizing general education.
