It is not the brains that matter most, but that which guides them—the character, the heart, generous qualities, progressive ideas —Fyodor Dostoyevsky
Saybrook University was established to challenge the idea that human beings needed to be broken down into parts and isolated from the rest of the world to be understood. Instead, our founders declared that human beings are complex, and to understand them, one must understand the interconnectivity of everything that they experience. Committed to helping students achieve their full potential, our community is deeply rooted in this humanistic tradition.
