Evergreen Fact Page
In Evergreen's learning community, students can participate in interdisciplinary programs rather than taking individual classes that are focused on one disciplinary area. Many of these programs are team taught by two or more faculty.
This page includes data on enrollment, degrees, retention, alumni, faculty and staff, and teaching and learning at Evergreen.
