Graduate Idea Forum
Graduate education involves in-depth exploration of particular disciplines. It is also faciliated by simultaneous explorations of the place of particular disciplines in broader intellectual and social discourse. A Study Group was organized in Fall 2002 by GSSWSR and Arts and Sciences graduate students, with the support of faculty from various disciplines, to encourage and facilitate the broader explorations, by reading together excellent semi-popular books on general interdisciplinary themes. Discussion in the Study Group led, in Fall 2003, to the establishment of a second working group on "Explorations of Teaching," designed to explore why, what, and how we teach and learn, who we are as teachers and learners, and how these questions and the answers to them are mutually influential.
Study Group
Any graduate student or faculty member interested in thinking about intellectual issues which transcend particular disciplinary borders are invited to join this working group by contacting Roland Stahl.
