Great-Books of the Western Tradition
Traditional
Great-Books colleges offer a broad-based liberal arts education with
curricula centered around reading and discussing the books and articles
that have been most significant in the formation of our society. Taken
together, this constitutes the Great Conversation.
Trinity College emphasizes the exploration
of the purpose for our existence. Studying the writings of the
foremost thinkers gives students the opportunity to examine different
perspectives on these questions. Instead of learning from secondary
sources like textbooks and instructors, students learn from the
great thinkers. Unlike traditional
Great-Books colleges, Trinity On-Line allows students to do this in the
high-technology environment of the Internet.
