Common Good and the Pursuit of Purpose
CSC 23913
Students selected to participate in the Pursuit of Purpose summer fellowship enroll in this course exploring the intersection of the common good and moral purpose. Special attention is paid to integrating a robust vision for the common good in vocational, career, and other life pursuits. Students will consider the cultivation of a particular kind of life and how personal and communal choices and commitments enable tangible responses to the demands of justice. Readings and class assignments are designed to create space for students to reflect and discern key questions facing them in the near and longer term. Throughout the semester, students will actively design a summer fellowship experience alongside, and in consultation with, Center for Social Concerns staff, faculty, and partners.
This course includes an 8-week summer placement working with community partners during summer 2023.
