CLNI 140 Designing Your Life

Do you ever think, "I want to make a difference!" but don't know where to start? In this class students learn design thinking methods by addressing the question of what they want to do with their lives after college. Students build deeper awareness of values and goals, define areas of life and work they want to grow in, examine multiple life paths and careers that interest them, and take small steps to try these out. This is an experiential class that asks students to try new ways of thinking and step outside their comfort zone, all within a supportive community of peers.
