Rachael Barlow is Wesleyan's first Associate Director of Assessment. She teaches the courses associated with the Integrative Learning Project, which is designed to help students articulate what they have been learning during their time in college and to make connections between what they have done inside the academic curriculum to what they have done outside of it. Rachael came to Wesleyan from Trinity College, where for twelve years she helped faculty and students incorporate qualitative and quantitative data into their work and taught a first-year seminar on decision making and a graduate course in public policy research methods. She was also the faculty liaison to both the women's lacrosse team and men's basketball team. She attended Washington and Lee University as an undergraduate and Indiana University as a graduate student, where she earned her doctorate in sociology.
