Mission Label:


Mission
Our work is to listen to each other, to express our thoughts openly—both orally and on paper—and to respect the class as a safe zone. Our work is a form of play. We play with ideas, we discuss, and we argue. In order for them to matter, we must engage our ideas not only with our minds but also with our hearts. Our class discussions only matter if we contribute to them with our emotions, our feelings, our hearts.
