The theme of this year’s retreat is “Creating Wicked Students… Now and Beyond.” As instructors, we all desire our students to be ready and able to create positive change for the world and society.The future is unknown, as are the challenges ahead and possible solutions. These challenges, or wicked problems, require out of necessity that our students develop what Paul Hanstedt (2018) calls “wicked competencies.” Examples of these competencies are when students are open to new challenges, know when and what to question, can draw from multiple areas, and are not afraid to fail. Just providing disciplinary knowledge and skill content is necessary but not sufficient. Students with wicked competencies are prepared now and beyond to solve wicked problems.
