Announcing two participatory information Sessions on the M.C. Richards Program on Zoom

Announcing two participatory information Sessions on the M.C. Richards Program on Zoom

This Fall, Free Columbia is starting a new program and there are still positions available.

The M. C. Richards Program is a one-year, full-time, residential course for young people (under 35) in transdisciplinary learning, grounded in phenomenological knowledge practices.

What kind of learning centers do we need to cultivate in a century of unprecedented environmental and social challenges, globalization and digital revolution? Are current paradigms of thinking and learning capable of solving the problems facing us, or are there new possibilities for
holistic approaches to creating knowledge? Are there ways of cultivating understanding that connect us to the rich particularity of the world without blurring its limits? These are the questions at the center of the M.C. Richards Program.

“What are some practices to strengthen and enliven living images, in contrast to mechanical and life-destroying images? And how may thinking itself be taught in ways that promote life, rather than estrange us from it?” — M.C. Richards
