How do we begin answering these questions?

Our approach has been to examine the thoughts and deeds of men and women who lived in eras different from our own — and we know that these conversations are best had with the friends that you study with, eat with, and spend late nights discussing the most important aspects of life. Come with friends and classmates to discuss and share ideas over dinner on what makes a “good life,” with the aid of some classic books! Open only to Harvard Undergraduate Students.

Join us on Tuesday, February 4th at 6:00pm Spindell Room
