CLA1005: Introduction to Liberal Arts Learning

This course is about you: your identity, your dreams, your goals, your values, your strengths, and your first year university experience. This course is also about ?you? in the plural sense. More specifically, through a shared experience that includes dialogue, readings, videos, and a group project. We will explore how diverse US college students understand their college education, what they want from it, and how they negotiate and give meaning to their university experience. This course is designed to help you navigate the challenges of college, the workplace, and society and propel you towards personal excellence, fulfillment, and wellness. As active partners in the quest for educational and personal success, our teaching team will work with you to develop the knowledge and understanding of self, society, and the university required to successfully navigate college life in an increasingly diverse and interconnected world. prereq: CLA Presidents Emerging Scholars, freshman
