In this rapidly changing world, students whose education is focused merely on a job are essentially stamping expiration dates onto their diplomas. Consider this: a decade from now, success will mean working in a career path that most likely doesn’t even exist yet. On the other hand, a liberal arts education is a foundation that will prepare you to adapt and thrive throughout your life. You’ll need to understand the world and the context it provides, to apply rational thought and intellectual capabilities to solve as-yet unheard of problems, to be able to analyze any situation and distinguish the important from the trivial. You will need to know how to learn. These are the skills that will make you highly sought after by employers in a variety of careers. At Schreiner, we are committed to an interdisciplinary approach as the best way to deliver a liberal arts education. Although facts and figures might be the bricks and mortar, the ultimate goal of education is to produce people who, one way or another, will contribute to the body of human knowledge. Schreiner has always seen a commitment to interdisciplinary education and scholarship as an integral part of achieving that goal.

Schreiner is very flexible and willing to work with various financial situations. Scholarships are available, and applying for financial aid really helped me get into the school I wanted—Schreiner University. – Madeline

At Schreiner, we do everything to ensure that the price you pay for your

education is affordable and the value you get for your money is first class. Our scholarship, grant, loan and work study opportunities are open to all our students. 95 percent of Schreiner students receive some form of financial aid, and most students find that they pay almost as little to go to Schreiner as they would to attend a public university. The average institutional aid package for freshmen is $7,496. And Schreiner charges a flat fee and tuition; students don’t pay extra for sports events, parking or most other campus events, as is the case on other campuses. We also provide free tutoring, as well as Internet access and cable in the residence halls. Meals in the dining hall are one price, all you can eat.

Your time here will be an opportunity to explore and learn. You will grow academically, socially and spiritually England through your studies, sports and recreation, cultural activities and community service.

The right path for you may include enriching “side-trips.” Schreiner encourages its students to learn outside as well as inside the classroom. Some of them take it outside the country altogether.

Schreiner was the only university I applied to. I felt a calling here and when Dr. Summerlin remembered my name, I knew this was a place where I could be myself. I also was drawn to the small class sizes, the chance to study religion, the beautiful Hill Country, the fact that I am Presbyterian and have a good support system in the area and generous financial aid. The faculty, administration and staff all genuinely care for the students, which makes you want to put more effort into becoming a scholar. — Kristi

It is a privilege to be a part of the Honors ceremony. On one hand we are recognizing the accomplishments of students whom we are inducting and have just come to know, and then we turn and recognize the achievements of the beloved students we know well who are finishing. To stop and note the growth and the maturity of these students is so inspiring! I couldn’t be more proud of both sets. – Dr. Diana Comuzzie, Dean, Trull School of Sciences

Life is about relationships... Success is equally dependent upon relationships... Schreiner offered me the relationships to develop my potential and successfully become a doctor and father, but more importantly my relationships at Schreiner provided me a lens to examine my life, my potential and my world. This is more profound than success. It allows me to engage the world, survive the setbacks and prosper amid uncertainty. Needless to say, I am very thankful for my experience at Schreiner. — Jason Aaron ’97

Jason was much more than another very intelligent student. He was almost unique in my experience in two particular ways. He had exceptional study skills. He was able to organize and use his time very effectively. In addition, he was unusually thoughtful. I was always impressed with the fact that he regularly considered how others might be affected by anything he did or said.

The School of Liberal Arts Traditionally, the liberal arts are the foundation of all higher learning, giving a student the knowledge and learning skills to succeed in any field. Many liberal arts majors go on to graduate schools in their undergraduate fields, while others use their degrees to springboard into teaching, counseling, law, creative arts or starting their own businesses.

Schreiner’s location in the Texas Hill Country

provides an ideal setting for outdoor fun. Students get together to go swimming, fishing, canoeing or kayaking on the nearby Guadalupe River, and hiking, mountain biking, rock climbing or camping in the rugged hills. The Schreiner Outdoor Adventure Program coordinates its own assortment of activities, including wilderness camping in Montana, snow skiing in Colorado, hiking in Big Bend National Park and climbing Enchanted Rock; it even rents out camping equipment, kayaks, mountain bikes and other sports gear. The Campus Recreation office oversees plenty of intramural action in soccer, basketball, volleyball and flag football. It also sponsors special intramural events such as dodgeball and kickball, swimming events such as Dive-in Movies and the 150-lap Swimfest, as well as fitness programs and outdoor trips.

At Schreiner, what you learn outside the classroom is often as

important as what you learn inside it. Living on campus, either in the residence halls or on-campus apartments, will provide you with the opportunity to grow, to gain independence, to establish enduring friendships and to learn more about yourself. Most students live on campus, and a big reason for that is our active, friendly community.

The Oaks and Pecan Grove apartments are Schreiner residences for upper class students. Both feature apartment-style living with community living spaces for group socializing. Schreiner’s newest building, Faulkner Residence Hall, will be ready for freshmen in fall 2009. On-campus living plays a big part in Schreiner’s unique community, and the school’s smaller size means you never feel far from home. If you’re looking for fun off-campus, Kerrville is home to an assortment of shops, restaurants, music events, theaters and museums. And San Antonio, with all its world­-class attractions, such as theme parks, museums, professional sports and music venues, is barely an hour away.

admission who show the potential and the desire to succeed in an academic environment, and who will contribute to and participate in the University’s diverse community of learners.

This publication is one step in Schreiner University’s effort to reduce its carbon footprint on the planet by using paper and a print company that are certified by the Forest Stewardship Council. The FSC certifies the forests that are the source for paper products in terms of their responsible management and sustainability. A sustainable forest (or any other

natural resource) is one that can meet the needs of our generation without compromising those of future generations. For a print company or paper manufacturer to be FSC certified, there must be a demonstrable chain of custody from the forest to the company. Both our paper manufacturer, Finch Fine iD, and our printer, Capital Printing,

are FSC-certified. In fact, one of the forests from which Finch gets wood for paper is owned by The Nature Conservancy. In addition, the paper we use for the cover of this viewbook is made from 30 percent postconsumer recycled material and the paper we are using for the book itself also is partially recycled.

Wanna go on a road trip? Come check out Schreiner.

We’d love for you to visit the campus and let us show you around. We’ll tailor your visit so you’ll be able to take a good look at the campus, meet professors, get together with coaches and other students, and talk to our financial aid and admission counselors. Schedule a visit online by going to the Schreiner Web site or call us and schedule by phone. For a somewhat more structured way to learn about us on the spot, come to one of the Schreiner Saturdays scheduled during the school year. Take the time to look around the Hill Country while you’re here. Visit Kerrville, check out the Old Ingram Loop just west of town. Fredericksburg is half an hour away, San Antonio an hour and Austin less than 2 hours.
