(Cannot be used for a Division I requirement.) The Five College Collegium is the flagship ensemble of the Five College Early Music program. The Collegium is an ensemble of singers and instrumentalists that rehearses and performs four projects per academic year, one each per half-semester, drawing on the vast and varied repertory of European-style polyphony of the Medieval, Renaissance, and Baroque periods.

This course is designed to create intelligent consumers of policy research. The course is not designed to make students into policy researchers, but to enable them to understand the research done by others with a sufficiently skeptical eye to allow them to determine whether the findings of the research are valid given the assumptions made and methods used. This will involve, in part, thinking about the various problems in research design or conduct that could lead to faulty conclusions.
