COMPACT SEMINARS
ROUND-TABLE DISCUSSIONS
Open to the general public, these seminars are a forum for discussing both timely questions of culture and long-standing problems relating to living well. They are a search for meaning with the assumption that a community of learners offers a different approach than solitary reading, however fruitful.
Taught by university educators, seminars follow a range of issues related to family and culture. The open-table format provides for both direction from the seminar leader and participation from the larger group.
Seminars are usually held in the evening at Stumberg Hall, home of the Austin Institute, and snacks and refreshments are provided.
