Heroes and Leaders.

Catalog description

This course examines the qualities that define exemplary leaders and the models that shape our aspirations. What makes for a hero, a statesman, or a good leader - and what leads to their opposites? Students will explore how education, experience, and character contribute to leadership, while considering the cultural and political forces that elevate or undermine these ideals. Through discussion and analysis, we reflect on the role of models in civic life and leadership.
