COR 3480 Life Stories
This course helps students identify the “life stories” they are living. It draws on literary, psychological, religious, and philosophical resources. Daily writing assignments from Sam Keen’s “Your Mythic Journey” will culminate in a personal story which remembers the past, reflects on the present, envisions a future, and clarifies personal beliefs and values. Contemporary films such a “A River Runs Through It” and conversations with community partners will serve as additional catalysts for writing one’s story.
