Life of the Mind

A stated goal of the FYS is to introduce incoming students to the richness of intellectual life at The University of Scranton. During a given academic term, numerous Life of the Mind opportunities are available. FYS students are encouraged to attend these events to form habits of intellectual inquiry that will enrich their time at The University of Scranton and beyond.
