  • We, the students and faculty of Miami Dade
    College, establish a covenant this day, October

    become intentional learners and promise to engage
    actively and continually in preparation and
    study, and to articulate these learning outcomes
    in our lives and work.
  • We, the faculty, accept our obligations as
    teachers and mentors to design engaging
    coursework, programs and activities that
    intentionally address the learning outcomes and
    actively engage students.
  • Collectively, we - Miami Dade College students
    and faculty - pledge ourselves to the development
    of knowledge, skills, and attitudes that foster
    effective citizenship and life-long learning.
  • Toward that end, we accept our shared
    responsibility to accomplish learning that will
    enable Miami Dade College graduates to
  • Use quantitative analytical skills to evaluate
    and process numerical data.
  • Solve problems using critical and creative
    thinking and scientific reasoning.
  • Formulate strategies to locate, evaluate, and
    apply information.
  • Demonstrate knowledge of diverse cultures,
