FYE 101 - Between Good & Evil

BETWEEN GOOD AND EVIL: This FYE links two disciplines, philosophy and psychology. The courses—”What is the Good Life?” and “The Social Psychology of Good and Evil,”—examine the nature and meaning of these foundational concepts. The courses will study real-world examples of individuals who are caught between good and evil, attempting to navigate the situational, societal, and political contexts in which they find themselves. We will draw upon a range of historical, contemporary, fictional, and scientific texts to critically analyze the human struggle to live a good life. This FYE invites students to contemplate their own lives through reflections, activities, and practices aimed at paving the way toward a meaningful and purposeful existence.
