Great Books V2.0: Lessons for Living and Leading in a Digital World

Course information provided by the Courses of Study 2023-2024.

This is a course modeled on a "core curriculum" comprising foundational texts that provide a comprehensive and shared base of knowledge that enables students to critically examine the role of technology, and by extension, their own role as leaders in the current social, economic, and political context. Like any 'Great Books' course, this course aims to prepare informed and active leaders for the greater good in the digital era. The books we will read in this seminar-style, discussion-based course are both cheerleaders and challengers of technology and business and the classroom discussions of the merits and demerits of the arguments in these books will help students learn about both the impact of technology on business and in society as well as how to mitigate the negative and augment the positive consequences. It will also build students' abilities to analyze topics and construct and articulate arguments.

When Offered Spring.
