SYMPOSIUM

Coordinators: Sheryl Harawitz, Mary Ann Donnelly, Donna Ramer

Each day, we have between 50,000 and 70,000 thoughts, many of which drive our daily routines and needs.But there are those moments when a seemingly random thought sparks an idea that fuels the synapses and becomes a link in a chain of ideas that ignites significant change.

In this course, we will uncover the genesis and stages of social, philosophical, industrial, and cultural ideas that changed the world.
