Monday Class

The Spring 2010 Monday Class, “Social Science, Religion, and Human Flourishing,” has now concluded. But a new class, “Math and Culture and the Culture of Math,” begins on March 22.

The Study Center offers a weekly class that addresses a broad range of questions that are widely shared by the university community. While these classes utilize guest lecturers from Gainesville and across the country, the Center relies most heavily on faculty and students from the University of Florida for its teachers in these classes. The Center’s main class typically meets on Monday evenings throughout the academic year.

Recent classes include

• “Social Science, Religion, and Human Flourishing”
• “Perspectives on Science and Worldview”
• “Technology and Local Ecological Health”
• “Augustine for Today”
• “Tattoos, Piercings, and Beyond: Body Modification and the Possibility of Meaning”
• “Religion, Scholarship, and the University”
• “How We Got Four—and only four—Gospels”
• “The Poet as Priest: Poetry and Transcendence”
