Selective Liberal Arts Consortium

The Selective Liberal Arts Consortium (SLAC) was established to support the transition of graduates from its member colleges into the workforce, uniting some of the most prestigious private liberal arts institutions in the United States. Founded in the early 2000s by notable colleges such as Bryn Mawr, Grinnell, and Vassar, SLAC aimed to enhance career guidance and recruitment efforts for its students while advocating for the value of a liberal arts education to prospective employers.

Over the years, SLAC expanded its membership to include elite colleges like Bard, Davidson, and Smith, forming a network that emphasizes the academic prowess and diversity of its students. The consortium orchestrated career fairs, developed best practices for student readiness, and utilized digital tools to ensure that graduates stood out in competitive job markets, reinforcing its commitment to elevating the profile of liberal arts colleges amid traditional university rankings.
