Take the only UChicago course that's about you! At the heart of a US liberal arts education is the idea that you should discover how you will use your education and talents to serve the world. Yet, time for developing this knowledge is becoming an even-rarer part of collegiate life. This course provides structured activities, conversational space, and habits of mind that support your wayfinding process and the development of your own sense of purpose.

This course is held every Tuesday, 12:30 - 1:30 PM. It is a free, zero-credit course, so it can be taken in addition to a normal course load. You can add it to your schedule starting March 11th! This course is part of CCRF Seminars: The Common Year Program (CYP).
