我是谁??
我擅长什么?
我被呼召成为谁?
在这个研讨会上, the instructor will lead the class through a semester-long examination of identity development, asking the question of what it means to live a life of meaning and purpose. 这门课将涉及当代文学, 目前的电子游戏正规平台, and social commentary as you discuss the impact of race, class, 种族, 性别, 性, 亲密, 信仰, 以及我们生活中的职业洞察力. CTK sections also incorporate outside-of-the-classroom activities in and around campus and the City of Boston into the course curriculum.
