The Web Community

While Individual Majors give students the opportunity to integrate diverse resources in their plans for a major, the required Web Portfolios allow them to demonstrate that integration, and the coherent, meaningful relations among the different kinds of work and experiences they undertake. The Web Community is the online learning community of the CIS, where students can link their web portfolios to those of their peers and to outside resources.

Current students' web portfolios are required to go "live" by midway through their senior year. Portfolios linked on this page will continue to change throughout the academic year. A finished portfolio is required in early May in order to certify the individual major as complete.

To see examples of web portfolios from recent CIS graduates, click here.

Students propose their plans for an Individual Major to Faculty Committees that review and approve the proposals.  Proposals for Individual Majors go through several stages of development, but from this page and the archives page you can view final, approved proposals that are included in students' web portfolios.

Disclaimer: The views and opinions expressed in these web portfolios are strictly those of the portfolio authors. They do not necessarily reflect the views of the faculty, staff, or other students of the Center for Integrative Studies or St. Olaf College. Student web portfolios, required of each individual major in the CIS, are subject to review but are not edited or censored.
