HNRS 100 - Community and Commitments in Literature

(4)

FA. As a point of entry for both Calvin’s Core curriculum and the Honors Scholars program, this course introduces the institutional project of thinking deeply, with eyes always toward justice and renewal. Anchored by literature credits (applicable to Calvin’s Humanities Core requirements), the course emphasizes Calvin’s Reformed theological foundations and its attendant commitments to justice, intercultural learning, and sustainability. Through a range of literary works, students will hone skills in reading, writing, and textual interpretation—as well as skills for listening to diverse voices with sensitivity and hospitality.
