Mission  
School mission: Castleton State College is small enough to be a community where individuals matter, yet large enough to offer more than 30 academic programs, 19 intercollegiate sports (with football beginning in the fall of 2009), and more than 40 clubs and student organizations. The college is located in a historic Vermont village close to the best skiing in New England. Castleton students master the skills of the computer age -- and much more -- in a community that values student-faculty interaction. Students gain the perspectives, competence, and knowledge important in all careers and in life itself. Castleton encourages volunteer service, sustainability, course work that takes students into the community, and internships.
