As an experiential workshop series, Foundations engages students on topics that are supplemental to development and life beyond campus. In its third year, the series hosted six consecutive Monday workshops starting Sept. 9. In celebration of this year’s theme, “Becoming: Your Personal Journey,” workshop topic highlights surrounded leadership, personal wellness, relationships, community and more.
“The Foundations Series this year was incredible. Not only did I learn a lot from the great speakers that we had through the series but it was also a great space for self-reflection,” says Hemanth Reddy Kodakandla G’21. “I hope each participating student had the same amazing experience I did.”
Undergraduate and master’s students who attend all six hour-long sessions and submit an essay, video/vlog or digital portfolio are entered to win a $1,000 scholarship.
