The course looks at the human connections among topics such as art, music, literature, business, social sciences, and the like. Using the disciplines as a springboard, the course explores individual, societal, and cultural values in the modern, global, and information age. Mitchell faculty and others also supplement the class with guest appearances telling their "stories," discussingtheir work, answering questions, and putting a human face on the different specialties. In addition, students work with exploration and decision making exercises that lead to implementing a choice of major.
