The study of spiritual growth has often focused on the tools and technologies of transcendence, ignoring the powerful role of the body in our spiritual, emotional, and psychic lives. While our bodies carry the memories of our physical, psychic, and emotional wounds, they simultaneously offer us profound opportunities for compassion, healing, and transformation. Cultures around the world have used the sacred and embodied technologies of music, sound, and movement to integrate our emotional, physical, and spiritual selves-and in this class, students will have a direct experience of some of these powerful modalities. Using specific vocal, instrumental, and electronic sounds, along with movement, mindbody exercises, visualization, and dialogue, we will enter the world of the body-the vessel and portal of experience-and learn to set healthyboundaries for healing ourselves and others.

The comprehensive exams taken toward the end of the Ph.D. coursework are composed of two take-home bibliographic essays in the student's two areas of specialization, based on key primary written sources in the designated fields. These exams demonstrate that the student has cultivated broad and deep knowledge of her two areas of specialization before going on to the dissertation work. They also may serve to develop a student's areas of teaching competencies. Students negotiate approval with their comprehensive exam supervisors for two or three recognized subtopics in each of their two areas of specialization; agree on a list of at least 30 key texts to be reviewed; and write two bibliographical essays. These are to be deeply researched and well crafted in two written (take-home) exams, which include an understanding of theoretical frameworks and scholarly debates pertinent to the particular topic of each comprehensive exam.
