This will be the fourth student creative exhibition over the last five years that has explored the touchstones that help shape Salems Engaging Ethics program. This year (2025-26) a grant from the Educating Character Initiative at Wake Forest University provides extra financial support along with a focus on how the touchstones (Courage Integrity Justice Care Respect) are not only theoretical concepts but qualities of character. That is they are virtues or forms of excellence that we aspire to at Salem College as well as principles that help us think. This creative exhibit is one way to explore student understandings of the touchstones as expressions of character.
