The Oregon Extension offers a fall semester of accredited college studies for the student who wants a more personal, honest, lively and deeply engaged learning experience in an intentional community setting – the student who does not want to say, on graduation day, “I never took the opportunity to stop and wonder about who I really am and what it is that really matters to me.”  Join an intentional community that engages spiritual and intellectual challenges from a deeply-examined faith— a faith that welcomes honest dialogue and opens itself to genuine human connection because it has tasted the freedom promised by the One who invites us to trust and not to fear. We tackle four broad interdisciplinary themes, each in a month-long segment of study. These themes are: Contemporary Issues, Social Critique, Human Stories, and Living Faith. Within each segment, students choose one course title that represents the discipline in which they wish to receive three or four semester hours of credit. These disciplines include literature, psychology, sociology, philosophy, biology, theology, biblical studies, history, education, science, political science, art and communications. http://www.oregonextension.org  |
