Athens to New York

College of New Jersey - NJ, New Jersey

IDSC 151: “”Athens to New York”" is an interdisciplinary core requirement at the College of New Jersey that is taught by full-time faculty in residence-hall classrooms. The course addresses four basic questions: what it means to be human; what is means to be a member of a community; what it means to be moral, ethical, or just; and how individuals in communities respond to differences. Students put theory to practice by completeing a minimum of ten hours of community service.

It takes great courage to take on challenges when everything tells you things are hopeless or you don't have all the answers at the ready. Minnesota Campus Compact embraces the leadership role in these tough times. That's heroic in my book."
