St. JohnÕs College
The St. JohnÕs curriculum is an
all-required course of study based on the great books of the Western tradition.
The interdisciplinary program includes four years of seminar, four years of
language, four years of math, three years of laboratory science, and one year
of music. The St. JohnÕs reading list can be found here.
In the fall of the Junior and Senior years,
Seminar is suspended for two months for Preceptorials, which function something
like electives at other colleges. My preceptorials were on various works of
Faulkner (taught by Andr Barbera, 1999) and ProustÕs A la recherch du
temps perdu (with Michael Comenetz, 2000).
