Welcome Message

The LAND membership consists of Michigan's community colleges.

Our goal is to be a forum and a network for the development of the liberal arts in all of its many aspects. Its activities are aimed at both teachers and students. We hope you find an access here to information leading to the improvement of the teaching of the liberal arts.
