SUMMER SEMINAR ACADEMIC COURSE 

Perspectives on Freedom, Authority, and Polarization will be co-taught by two amazing faculty, X̱’unei Lance Twitchell (joining us for the first part of the seminar) and Sharon Schuman.  

Course Description:

Gathered on the ancestral home of the Sheetkʼá Ḵwáan (People of the Outer Coast of Sheey), this seminar explores freedom, authority, and polarization through a series of readings and discussions that include diverse voices that shape and challenge our concepts of place, belonging, identity, and interactions. Readings will include Indigenous oral literatures, theories of cultural critique, classics of Western literature, and voices from the margins. The seminar focuses on freedom & authority as contested concepts and as potential remedies to polarization. Students will explore their developing views on these topics within a challenging context of self-government, labor, and community service.

The mission of Outer Coast is audacious: to prepare its students to make virtuous change in a world that, with every passing, tumultuous day needs it ever more. The 2018 Summer Seminar will allow us to test, refine, and further explore how to do this best.
