"Freshman Laboratory and the Laboratory's Place in the Liberal Arts"

A Tutor Panel with Judith Adam, Seth Appelbaum, Grant Franks, Eric Poppele, & Ahmed Siddiqi

Friday, September 9, 7:00 p.m., Great Hall

Because it attempts to engage directly with the natural world and the question of Nature, Freshman Laboratory is possibly the most radical of beginnings that we make in our studies at St. John's. Tutors will discuss some of the first themes of Freshman Laboratory and its challenging readings (looking, classification, causes), how these themes help us to approach and come to know the natural world, and how such beginnings might relate to our extended study of Science throughout the laboratory program at St. John's.
