Describe (in general) an MLC graduate

Time for another Question of the Month! ... Okay, well, actually it's a new question about every other month. :-)

A big part of planning general education for a college is thinking in terms of the OUTCOME we want at the end of the process. So for the January/February Question of the Month, we ask you to think about what kind of person comes out as a graduate of our college. Think NOT in terms of job-specific competencies (like Biblical languages for pastors or pedagogical techniques for teachers). Rather, think in general:
What knowledge, skills and attitudes should ALL graduates of MLC end up acquiring?
  • What should every MLC graduate know?
  • What should every MLC graduate be able to do?
  • What should every MLC graduate have as desirable dispositions or qualities?
