CNX SND - Soundings Lab

0


Soundings: An Introduction to the Liberal Arts is an award-winning program with a long history at Castleton. The name "Soundings" refers to the exploratory measurement of depth, originally in nautical navigation. This spirit of exploration lives on at Castleton! The Soundings program brings cultural and intellectual events to campus, introducing students to the richness and vitality of the liberal arts experience through lectures, plays, films, recitals, poetry readings, performances, and other activities including workshops with the presenters.

Students in each Connections Seminar are simultaneously enrolled in Soundings and attend and reflect on at least four events over the course of the semester. Soundings offers an important opportunity for making connections beyond the classroom and regular coursework. It helps set the foundation for a lifetime of cultural and intellectual engagement.  Successfully completing reflections on a total of twelve soundings events (completing three sections of 4-event CNX-SND) is a requirement of completing the Connections Seminar sequence and graduating from Castleton.
