Capstone: Adulting

Seniors only. Capstone classes may NOT be taken Pass/Fail. You may take only ONE Capstone class before graduation.Most college students in their early 20s feel neither fully adult nor fully competent in the tasks, responsibilities, and behaviors that are traditionally associated with grown-up life. In this class, students will take stock of their journey to adulthood so far and look ahead to what relationships, work, citizenship, and spirituality might look like in post-college life. Readings on the developmental psychology of young adulthood will be paired with popular media, exercises, and reflective writing to help students progress in their own "adulting" as they prepare to negotiate the transition out of college.
