Course Overview

HCC's Honors Colloquy Presents
"Contemporary Voices"

Spring 2008 
Wednesdays at 12:10 in Building 7

A series of discussions on the topic of:
"Opening Doors"


Colloquy means conversation. Each Wednesday during the quarter, we will have special speakers coming to our sessions to tell their own personal stories of "opening doors" and to discuss your options with you.  Come engage the experts in regard to choices that you will/must make for doors to open.  Colloquy presentations are open to the public.

In order to receive credit, you must:
1) be registered for Honors 101or Humanities 101,

2) view the presentations, and
3) must participate in the Blackboard discussion. (If you miss a presentation you will be able to listen to it from this website by clicking on the name of the speaker.)
