We explore stories, comics, essays, and films whose characters, like you, make the transition from high school seniors to college freshmen. Through a variety of group activities in class and outside (e.g. making vines in your dorm), you explore the vital role played by community during this transition: in senior spring community is intimacy: you graduate with friends you've known all your life; as college freshmen, community is opportunity: for the first time you live and make friends with people who?re not from your hometown.
Open to first-year Humanities and Fine Arts Exploratory Track students and first-year HFA Majors.
Permission is required for interchange registration during the add/drop period only.
