REL 115 - The Dignity of Creation: God and the Created Order


One of two First Year Seminars, this course focuses on the ways in which the Christian tradition in general and Roman Catholicism in particular have articulated and explored the idea of God’s relationship to humans and the non-human world, placing this articulation and exploration in dialogue with other world religious traditions. In a seminar, students are expected to participate in discussions and all students will lead one discussion during the term. The seminar requires a set sequence of writing assignments across sections. The seminar culminates in a symposium during which students critique an argument. This course is taken first or second semester of the first year.
