使命宣言
The 浓缩系列 aims to kindle a love of intellectual exploration, to encourage students and faculty to pursue interests outside their home disciplines, and to cultivate the habits of life-long learning -- all in order to better illuminate the world in which we live. 通过讲座, 座谈会, 表演, 电影, and workshops the 浓缩系列 creates opportunities for Saint Mary’s faculty, 访问十大网赌平台 and guest artists to share their disciplinary expertise, and fosters interdepartmental collaborations and co-sponsorships.
浓缩系列 programming is intentionally flexible, complementing the stability of the formal curriculum and the pedagogy of the Seminar classroom. 每学期, a rotating series of events enriches and expands students’ Seminar experience and introduces genre-specific reading strategies, while also supporting faculty formation as Seminar leaders. 浓缩系列 programs often explore questions raised by particular Seminar texts or situate those works within their historical and cultural contexts. But they may also highlight thematic links bridging the four-semester Seminar sequence, respond to campus initiatives and concerns, or engage with works of art, 科学实践, 或者个人见证.
学习成果
浓缩系列 events are designed to support the learning outcomes of the Seminar Program, and for this reason may be incorporated directly by Seminar faculty into the design and delivery of their own Seminars. IC programs supplement classroom learning by helping students further develop specific abilities, 包括:
- to approach texts from the perspective of different disciplines, using strategies appropriate to specific genres;
- to build the habits of life-long learning, including curiosity and a tolerance for ambiguity, provocation and controversy in the pursuit of deeper insights;
- to learn to disagree with civility, and to distinguish impact from intent, in the context of reasoned discussion;
- to understand how texts are situated within specific historical and cultural contexts;
- to encounter the intellectual perspectives and artistic achievements of marginalized voices;
- to see how texts address and respond to each other, within and across traditions and eras;
- to discover how texts speak to our own concerns and lived experiences, and how they illuminate the world we inhabit.
By providing occasions for all members of the Saint Mary’s community to gather and discuss questions both timeless and timely, the Collegiate 丰富讲座系列 cultivates the kind of inclusive and collegial conversation that is essential to liberal education.
