Careers of Purpose
“The purpose of a liberal arts education is not only to help you earn a living but to help you understand what living is for.
“We study texts, hold intimate conversations and explore places like London to engage the enduring questions of what it means to be human. We come out refined as thinkers and transformed as people.”
