Cost
Great Topics Seminars: Graduate Studies in the Humanities
and Sciences were begun as the Leadership Seminars in the Humanities
in 1988 through a grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities. Their
continuation is made possible
in part by the generous support of Millsaps College and by the
support of former seminar participants.
The fee for participating
in this seminar is $800. This course is an academic offering of the College
and carries four hours of graduate credit. As such, there will be required
reading and writing assignments during the semester. There is also the
option of taking the course as a noncredit option; readings and weekly
informal reflection paper assignments will be the same, but a major research
paper will not be required for those selecting the noncredit option. For
further information, contact Nola Gibson by calling 601-974-1132 or emailing
her at gibsonk@millsaps.edu.
The application deadline
is December 15, 2007. Enrollment in the Seminar is limited.
