Enriching Educational
Experiences (NSSE Benchmark)
Complementary learning opportunities enhance academic
programs. Diverse experiences teach students valuable things about themselves
and others. Technology facilitates collaboration between peers and instructors.
Internships, community service, and senior capstone courses provide
opportunities to integrate and apply knowledge. The NSSE
asks students about these enriching experiences.

| What NSSE suggests |
The following reproduces the mean data from the NSSE results for Hampden-Sydney as
well as two comparison groups.
Summary: With respect to their participation
in enriching educational experiences, first-year Hampden-Sydney students are on
par with students at other baccalaureate granting colleges, but ahead of the
population of NSSE respondent schools. However, there are substantial and
statistically significant differences between seniors at Hampden-Sydney and
those from the other comparison groups, with the Hampden-Sydney seniors taking
advantage of enriching educational experiences at levels far above the levels
reported by other students.
