Senior Studies: Transformations

Catalog description

Transformations presupposes that it is not enough simply to know; nor is it enough simply to do. Rather, a Liberal Arts education fulfills its mission when students experience a transformation in their perspective, making this new insight a part of themselves. As the senior bookend of the First Year Seminar, Transformations offers a series of courses intended to address the end of college and the launching of adult life in its wake. These courses will review and synthesize the learning achieved while at Le Moyne, and they will invite students to focus their talents, their energies, and their knowledge toward the world they are about to enter. The ( COR 400 ) Senior Studies Program challenges students with courses that respond to the complicated, dynamic nature of the contemporary world. The "transformations" studied should serve as metaphors for the meaning of the world today and how we out to live in that world.
