This course will inspire students to “awaken the goodness within themselves.” Students who take this class will have the opportunity to reflect upon their lives and reassess the various choices that they make in their day-to-day encounters. Through in-class lectures and assignments, students will learn the importance of being authentic in their life choices and keeping an open, honest, and positive outlook no matter the circumstance.
