Ultimately, after considering multiple options, we selected CDI’s Perspectives because people felt the curriculum not only provided education that supports freedom of expression and inquiry, but also--hands down--our students repeatedly said, ‘We want to learn how we can more effectively talk to each other--across differences in perspective, ideas, and cultures.' They really saw that CDI would help do that. We see the Perspectives course as a powerful tool in our efforts to promote intellectual, social and spiritual wellness.
