Seniors finished their exams and are ready for Baccalaureate and graduation this weekend. Before they leave, we want to acknowledge one of their final academic accomplishments, the Honors Senior Seminar presentations.
This year’s seminars covered a variety of topics, such as a Machiavellian twist on Shakespeare’s Henry V, the political effects of the pandemic on Latin America, three collages that capture different Renaissance movements, the importance of genotyping, and many more.
The seminar classes take place over the entire senior academic year and are intended as a substantial intellectual experience. These courses move from reflection and conversation in the fall towards practice in the spring, culminating in an academic project/presentation sparked by individual student interest and guided by the elective seminar director.
Seniors, congratulations on completing your academic journey at Cistercian!
