Reflecting on Your Education: Making Sense of Your Time at Stanford

Catalog description

In this seminar, designed for seniors graduating in the spring, you will reflect on your Stanford education. By delving deeply into Stanford's academic mission, the liberal arts model, and your own transcript, we will address a variety of questions through a personal and intellectual lens. Every transcript tells a story, both by what's there and what isn't - what story does yours tell? How do you take control of that narrative and articulate to others what your education has done for you? What are you getting from completing your Ways and 180+ units, and how did those academic experiences shape who you have become today? What do you share with other Stanford graduates and alumni? We'll tackle these questions, and together, we'll take a look at the bigger picture - what does it mean to get 'A Stanford Education'?
