The Janus Seminars are a semester-long conference on personal and professional identity development for first-year students as they transition into college.
We use the name Janus because, like Janus in Roman mythology, we want our students to be looking backward and forward at the same time — at who and where they have been, where they are going and who they want to be.
Two seminars will be required for all students: Preparing for LIB 199 and Preparing to Meet Your Academic Advisor.
Students use their Mission Core syllabus, in collaboration with their section instructor, to determine how to fulfill the requirements for the Janus Seminars.
