WHY THINGS HAPPEN? An Incursion into our Lifelong Questions
SS 315
Format B/C
The question “Why?” is one of the first questions we ask seeking an explanation to events and phenomena occurring around us. Several “Why’s” will be discussed in a new course, aimed at an audience interested in searching and acquiring answers. The intention of this course is to inquire into the causes of issues of major interest and find answers to the question “Why?” To develop our understanding, and to acquire further interest through discussions and study.
We plan on answering some “why’s” in the following areas of our lives with these sessions:
* Please note that Part 1, Lecture 1, Why’s in Biomedicine, is listed under Science, SC 213, in this catalog
Lecture 2: Why’s in our economic life
Lecture 3: Why’s in political current events
Lecture 4: Why’s in the world
