UNILWYL 1115
Exploring Purpose in Life: Identity, meaning, and direction at Cornell

Course information provided by the Courses of Study 2022-2023.

This course aims to provide students with the opportunity to reflect on purpose in life and how being at Cornell might impact their own experiences with identity, meaning, and direction. Informed by perspectives from scholars and peers in the course, students will explore different ways to find a sense of purpose in life, what outcomes are associated with having a sense of purpose, and how the college environment can foster (and potentially hinder) the cultivation of purpose. Participating students will be supported in developing and using critical dialogue skills to understand their experience with purpose in life and how social identities (e.g., nationality, race, socioeconomic status) relate to their exploration of and/or commitment to purpose.

When Offered Fall.
