Introductions and Horace Miner

As you can see, the first blogs are up.  Read through the entries at the left, if you can, and get to know a little bit about your classmates. 

It's interesting to discover that most everyone in the class comes from within an hour-and-a-half drive's radius of Temple, and a number of you are exploring the idea of becoming a high school guidance counselor. 

I've tried to post a brief comment to each blog.  Sometimes I pose a question--but please don't feel you have to respond--most often they are merely rhetorical.  I'm looking forward to reading more from all of you over the semester.

Welcome Spring 2013 Honors Class!

Welcome to the Spring 2013 Mosaic 951 blog that will catalog information, conversation, and other areas of interest to our class this semester.  This course is the first of a two-semester seminar that will introduce you to humanities at Temple University.  We'll use this space throughout the semester to share ideas and to keep track of our many projects--and share ideas with others in the class.

To learn more about the course sequence and design, please see the program page for Intellectual Heritage.  There you will find, among other items, the listing for this semester’s lecture and film series.

Visit this page often and feel free to comment whenever you see fit.
Looking forward to a great semester!
