Welcome Students, Past and Future!
This semester’s theme is Identity—how we think of ourselves in the context of our relationships, our environment, our shared history, and our presence in, and impact on, the world today. Our national commemoration of the Declaration of Independence and the American Revolution offers an inviting occasion for addressing these essential questions at a critical stage in our evolution as a society and as a nation. We’ve learned that environmental and social activism, as well as truth-telling about our short but complicated 250-year history, is essential to ensuring our well-being as current and future citizens of the United States of America and citizens of this fragile and strife-torn world.
All the best,
