Our main goal is to foster in students an attitutde of sincere truth-seeking about life's most fundamental questions in conversation with great works of thought especially philosophy and literature. Such truth-seeking thrives in our view in an environment where students feel the freedom to ask about anything where they are comfortable engaging in reasoned debate and disagreement--even about fundamental issues--in a spirit of friendship. Becoming such a person will require cultivating certain virtues such as courage intellectual humility and openness to truth and deep habits of study. We do this by sponsoring student-reading groups public lectures and providing one-on-one mentoring.
