Located on a lush, 287-acre wooded campus a few miles north of Baltimore and just an hour's drive from Washington, D.C., Goucher is home to about 1,400 students from more than 40 states and 20 countries. Its faculty consists of a wide variety of distinguished scholars, some of them Danforth, Fulbright, Guggenheim, Newberry, and Woodrow Wilson Fellows, all of whom work closely with students both in class and on important research on the cutting edge of their fields.
