College is often a time for students to both learn skills to earn a livelihood and ask big questions about one’s purposeful vocation in life. This seminar will explore alignment and conflict between these two important goals. On one hand, participants will examine personal fit within a market economy. On the other hand, they will examine the work they may feel called by their heart, faith, and/or society to do. In doing so, participants will read about, watch, and meet professionals who are grappling with similar tensions between money, which they need to live, and meaning, which they need to flourish. The seminar provides students with the opportunity to examine “common good” endeavors in the for-profit and/or non-profit sectors. In the process, students will inquire about the possibility of developing themselves as principled leaders and finding meaningful work that also sustains them, their families, and the common good. While much of the course content involves philosophical reflection, much of the course outcomes are practically oriented toward personal and professional development. Prerequisites: Junior standing.
