Program Goal:
Self Discovery
The general theme, "Diversity in Chicago", will enable students to come to know themselves: as individuals, as members of a community, and as citizens of the larger global context (i.e., Chicago as a global city). Through engaged pedagogy and collaborative learning, students will have opportunities to understand their own place in society and to develop a deeper understanding and appreciation for the diversity that pervades all aspects of the city and environs of Chicago (through the particular disciplinary lens), their own place within that system, and its position as a global center.
